The letter “B” is not pronounced “bee”, that is how you pronounce the name of the letter. It makes a “buh” sound.
The important one is “W” because if you name the letter, “double yew” your lips will touch. If you pronounce the letter, “wuh wuh,” then your lips do not touch.
The other letters are M and P, and your lips touch both saying the name and making the sound the letter represents.

But seriously, what?
Pronouncing the letter - Ay, bee, cee
Saying the letters name???

Ohh how it’s pronounced in words!
Your lips don’t touch making w in wuh?
In the middle? No, but if we’re including touching at the corners, then O, U, F, V, G, J, Q, and Y all join the party.
Wuh what sound do you think “W” makes?
/w/
as opposed to /dəbl’yju:/
W has a ‘b’ sound in the name, but doesn’t when used in a word.
