'A'ishah (radee Allaahu 'anhaa) reported that she once said to the Prophet (sall-Allaahu 'alayhi wa sallam): "O Allaah's Messenger, why do you not give me a kunyah?" He replied:
"Take a kunyah after your sister's son 'Abdullaah. So you are Umm 'Abdillaah." (Recorded by Ahmad, Aboo Daawood, and others. Verified to be authentic by al-Albaanee in as-Sahihah, No. 132 and Sahih ul-Adab il-Mufrad Nos. 850, 851)
Commenting on this hadeeth, al-Albaanee (rahimahullaah) said:
"This indicates that it is recommended to have a kunyah, even for those who do not have children. This is an Islamic etiquette that, as far as I know, is unparalleled by other nations. Thus, all Muslim, men and women, should adhere to it and drop what has invaded them of foreign customs..." (As-Sahihah, Vol. 1.1, P. 257)
The kunyah is a nickname which starts with Abu (father of) or Umm (mother of). It usually includes the name of the oldest son. It may also be just a nickname, as in the example given in the question, since Abu Bakr did not have any child whose name was Bakr.
The nickname may be given because of something that is unique to that person, such as Abu Hurayrah (lit. father of the kitten). The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) gave him this nickname because he would often carry a cat or kitten with him.
