Originally it was iced cream. By using ice and salt in an ice-cream maker the cream is slightly frozen. More than 100 years and several cultures later we have ice cream.
Sorbet is similar but made with fruit and no cream. Sherberts also.
All sorts of assorted ices around the world.

Years ago, people took fresh cream and froze it...thus making "iced cream". (It would have the consistencey of our ice cream). Then people thought up other ways of making a food with the same characteristics....but kept the original name. In our day, this stuff is mostly made in factories from ingredients that bear little resemblence to real food 9as is the case with most of our foods today) but we still call it "iced cream" without the "D".

Ice means frozen and yes, ice cream does contain water, whether it is in the flavors, syrups or the cream which is used in making it.

you are quite correct in the content, but I think the fact that it is frozen adds to the iced connotation that it is iced.
be happy
