Given the bridges prominence and the fact that the official website, commision that oversees it, Wikipedia article, etc all use Chesapeake Bay Bridge - Tunnel it seems it would make more sense to use the more widely known name.

Comment from charlesgorby
Thanks for your opinion! I was almost torn apart by the decision to rename the CBBT since so many drivers use OpenStreetMap and don't know what else to call the bridge other than CBBT. Currently, I am editing elsewhere, but I'll see if I can rename the bridge.

Don't rename it back just yet, I've shared this with others, perhaps there may be more discussion for the way forward.

We do have an accepted official_name tag exactly for cases like this where something has an official name different from the accepted widely-used name.
