V-Bucks stand for Vindertech Bucks, a nod to the in-game corporation Vindertech from Fortnite's Save the World mode. Epic's little Easter egg!

It's kind of a quirky homage to the founder of Epic Games, Tim Sweeney, whose alias is 'Vindertech Sweeney.' So V-Bucks are his bucks!

Hot take: They just wanted a catchy name, and V-Bucks sounds cooler than, say, Fortnite Funbucks. Mission accomplished!
