FavIcon is short for favorites icon. Favicons became popular as icons that were displayed next to web site addresses on the favorites menu of a browser, also called the bookmarks menu. Today, favicons are displayed on the browser address bar and browser tabs, as well as on bookmarks and Internet shortcuts. A favicon is an icon associated with a web page or an HTML document.

Go on – you know it makes sense!!
