ABBA is singular reading forward and plural reading in reverse.

In proper British English collective nouns are treated as plural.

I noted the same thing “are” and “have”? ABBA is singular.

ABBA: It’s an acronym for the four singers’ first names.

Maybe the plural of ABBA is ABBI (kind of like bimbo/bimbi from an old Cheers episode)

They formed the name from the first initials of the four band members...
