As litendark says it was created by Ingvar Kamprad, hence the name IKEA. It stands for Ingvar Kamprad Elmtaryd Agunnaryd. Elmtaryd is from name of the farm(!) where IKEA was created in 1943, and Agunnaryd is the name of the village in Småland, a county in south Sweden. The first IKEA was opened in the town of Älmhult, in Småland.

While we are at it I can list a few other Swedish companies: Saab, Volvo, Ericsson, H&M and absolute vodka. Skype was invented by the Swede Niklas Zennström. Phu, nice to get that out of my system :)
