Nothing. The name is anything you give it. It has no special meaning. You can right click / control click / two finger click on the icon while the icon is selected and select "Rename" to edit the name to anything you want.

I wondered how it got changed. I don't recall ever renaming it "incited," although I do have an office cat who walks around on mice and keyboards. He might have right clicked the icon, just as I was typing the word incited.
