The only often-used word found in any dictionary is "iceberg lettuce", but of course that is two words. And in less Greebo was mistaken in her question's phrasing (yeah right! ), it cannot be the answer.
So therefore I offer up to you:
~ickface: "the openmouthed grimace a cat gets when he smells something funky; also dumb face, lion face, yuck face" --the Cat Dictionary
~Icommerce: also known as "Ecommerce"--doing business over the internet
And then of course there is the ICCE, but that is an abbreviation.

Well done Livzy... indeed this one is your point... and the answer and the reason is written here now for those who just did not understand...
Ice; each word begins with the last two letters of the previous word.
