救急救命士(きゅうきゅうきゅうめいし / paramedic) is one of my favorite Japanese words because it has きゅう three times in a row.

Any other fun words like that?

I don't know why, but the way 星々(ほしぼし) is pronounced is just so fun for me. I know there are many more reduplicative words but only 星々 feels so pleasing to pronounce.
