Keyless entry remote fob?

Just out of curiosity, what does fob stand for?

It's not an acronym - it is a word. Years ago, it was a term for a special pocket in the front of pants or vest for a pocket watch. It also means a short chain or ribbon attached to a pocket watch which was left hanging out of the pants or vest fob (pocket) - hence the common term "watch fob". It also means an ornament or seal attached to such a chain or ribbon - probably the reason the remotes are called fobs. Another similar term is "pendant" (something handheld).

In this context, nothing. It's a word, not an acronym.

In the shipping industry, it means "Free On-Board".
