CC stands for carbon copy. It was used in the old days to make an exact copy of a document to send to someone else.
Any address you put in CC means they will get a copy of that email, even if it doesn't directly relate to them.

If you are writing a letter To someone then you should write their names in "To" field.
And you want to send a copy of the letter to someone else then you use their name in "CC" field..
CC means carbon copy of the first mail.
In the back days when there was no email the term cc was used to send a copy of the mail to other addresses too..and generally the copy was done from a carbon based paper..
Thats how this term originated..

Cc: stands for ‘carbon copy’ and Bcc: stands for ‘Blind carbon copy’.
In email, the Cc: command is straightforward enough, as it says ‘send a copy of the message to an address other than the main recipient’ (the address that you place in the To: field).

cc = carbon copy. For when you want to send a copy to others as well. So for instance, a memo to your boss might be addressed To: your_boss, and then cc: to the other members of your workgroup. The 'carbon copy' dates back to when letters would be typed up, and carbon paper used to make copies as they were typed.
