VeriSign GRS offers .cc, the country code for Cocos (Keeling) Island, a territory of Australia located in the Indian Ocean, through an agreement with eNIC Corporation, a Seattle, Washington-based company that has been charged with the management of the registry by the government of Cocos. To-date, close to 400,000 .cc names have been registered, ranking .cc among the most popular country codes in the world.

That's what the domain stands for.

In the old days of using a typewriter, it stood for "carbon copy". You would put a carbon sheet between the original and a second blank sheet. At the bottom of your letter, you would "cc" whoever the copy was for.
