The letter "A" for Apmeres. And as the following poster answered, the letter "I" is used in mathematical formulae representing current.
In Ohm's law, Voltage = Current * Resistance -- or V = I * R
The letter "A" is for representing units. 1 A = 1 Ampere of electrical current.

The letter I seems to be an odd choice for the English language, but it was chosen in the early days of electricity to represent intensity of current which we simply call current today

ELECTRIC CURRENT Is Represented By letter ( I ) , the 9th english alphabet .
ITS UNIT is AMPERE and is represented by A , the first english alphabet.
It is defined as the Rate of Flow of CHARGE.......i.e dq/dt
where dq = change in Current
dt = change in time
hope u get basic representation of Electric Current..........take care

'I' represents electic current and its unit is Amperes(A)
u can use any letter provided u should mention what it represents

Well well, school was a hell of a long time ago but my guess was correct! According to the Wiki site anyway - so who knows! Try 'A' for ampere.
