Yes, it does spell B-A-C-H, with B in German being Bb, and H in German
being B natural (as in Bach's Messe in H-moll, or Mass in B minor)

Good Day:
There is a symbol used of Bach's name in a cross shaped icon, you
can see here:
http://www.bachakademie.de/
On the Bach Yahoo list, someone mentioned that BIS Records uses this
symbol, but I'm at work and
I don't have a CD handy. But the question was raised, was this symbol
from the 18th century?
Does anyone have more information on it? I'd be most grateful.
Doesn't this icon spell Bach's name in musical notation or am I
mistaken?
Thanks
Kim
