Etymology

The unit's name is combines the frozen treat ice cream with "Ai" (愛, love). The capitalized letters are the initials of the members' given names: Ayumu, Shiki, and Ruby.

Each of the members has strong feelings of love ("Ai") toward specific other characters (Ruby → Dia, Ayumu → Anata/Yu, and Shiki → Mei), leading to the meaning "screaming love" (Ai Scream).
