ICE

In Case of Emergency

Some people have proposed that everyone should add an entry to their phone's contact list (phone book) labeled "ICE", which would be the phone number that a third party (such as a doctor or emergency worker) should call in case something happens to you and they find your phone. The phone number might be your next of kin, for example.
