Maybe "lerpoipo'i": ko'a porpi ko'e noi porsi lo lerfu
zo broda lerpoipo'i by ce'o ry ce'o .obu ce'o dy ce'o .abu
The pronoun "by" is not the name of the letter B, but it can well be
used to refer to the letter B since whatever its name is in Lojban, if
it has one, it probably begins with B.
Another maybe more practical option is:
zo broda lerpoipo'i by ry .obu dy .abu
where the pronoun "by ry .obu dy .abu" is used to refer to the letter
sequence B, R, O, D, A. It's unlikely that this pronoun will ever be
used to refer to anything else.
