CC refers to carbon copies - from the days when letters were typed out using manual typewriters and copies were made, while typing, using carbon papers. So CC refers to people, other than the main addressees, who will also get a copy.
BCC refers to "Blind CC". These are people who will receive copies but their names will not appear in the list of recipients so nobody else will know that they have been copied in.

What do the following abbreviations mean when sending an email bcc and cc?
bcc means blind carbon copy. cc means carbon copy. The abbreviation cc come from a long time ago when if you wanted to make a copy of a letter you were writing you put a piece of carbon paper followed by another piece of paper behind it and the impressions made when writing or typing the letter caused the carbon paper to duplicate what you wrote on the other piece of paper. This made a "carbon copy" which you could keep or send to someone else. So, cc means you are sending a copy of your email to the people listed in the cc space. bcc means blind cc, meaning the person you're emailing will not know you also sent copies to these people.
