A tricky riddle that asks to name an English word with 3 consecutive double letters. You think about it and do not get the answer because, well it’s tricky. The answer is Woollen (double-u is the trick here). But, this won’t give you extra points in a scrabble game. Below are actual words with three consecutive double letters.

We included proper nouns (mainly place names), some foreign words, and a few of the best-invented terms in this list of words with consecutive double letters, in addition to dictionary words and words discovered in Internet publications. A list of personal names has been compiled, but only if there are several cases.

A more thorough search would very certainly turn up a significant number of more names, although verification is often difficult. Thanks to Dave Morice for the inspiration from his Kickshaws story “The Moon Bookkeeper and the Toollooter” (Word Ways, May 1999)
