Back when the iMac first came out, I believe the i stood for internet. The iMac was the first computer without a floppy disk drive. The idea was that with the Internet and email becoming so popular, more and more people were emailing files to each other, rather than saving them to a floppy disk.

This part is a guess, but I think the letter i became popular enough, that they decided to use it with the iPod, iphone, and now the icloud.
