My understanding is that IKEA is an acronym for the company founders's
name and town in swedend where he is from. IK for the founder and EA for
the town.  The I is therefore an integral part of the IKEA name and does
not stand for "International"

I thought about the IKEA angle when i first saw your post and (wisely)
kept my mouth shut, giving you the benefit of the doubt.
