Question: What common English word has three consecutive double letters?

Answer: Bookkeeper. The only other word in the dictionary with three consecutive double letters is a variation on the same word: Bookkeeping. If you allow proper nouns or compound words, there are a few more (sweet-tooth, feed-door), but in the realm of single-word common nouns, the bookkeepers who are bookkeeping are it.
