Thanks, Zeger. Very good point. With best wishes.
However, the word "to be" doesn't have the letter "B" in any of its forms. Nice try.
As I mentioned in my comment of Dec. 06, 2011: "Regarding B: While living in an English-speaking country, Saint-Exupery wrote “The Little Prince”. That being the case, there’s at least a fair chance that B in B612 might mean the English word “be”.
In english it could be "Be fabulous", and in french, we write "Soyez (or Sois) fabuleux". So B612 in french turns to S612...
Well, there’s a possibility that the author decided to combine English and French to come up with B612: B to stand for the English word “be” (he was living in an English-speaking country at the time that he wrote the book), and 612 to represent the French word “fabuleux”.
Therefore, B612 = Be fab may well be a combination of English and French.
