INRI is a Latin acronym for Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum (English: "Jesus of Nazareth [literally 'Jesus the Nazarene'], King of the Jews [or 'Judaeans']".) Some Eastern Orthodox depictions of the Crucifix have a slight variation, showing instead the letters INBI, based on the Greek text of the inscription on the cross, Iésous o Nazóraios o Basileus tón Ioudaión.

Jesus of Nazareth
King of the Jews.
Pilate had it placed there, The chief priest protested because
they didn't accept Jesus as King of the Jews.
But Pilate said, "What I have written, I have written.
Little did they know.

It was written by the Romans who ruled Jerusalem at this time
The Name Yeshua (Hebrew for Jesus) in Roman language is
IESVS
The 2nd letter represents where HE was from (Nazareth)
NAZARENVS
The 3rd letter is for the Roman word for KING
REX
And the 4th letter is for the nation of Jewish tribes.
IVDAEORVM (sometimes written Iudaeorum since V is a
numeral or number. 5 to be exact)
Romans did not use the letter J in their alphabet

The initials, I.N.R.I. were used as an acronym for the Latin phrase, "Iesvs Nazarenvs Rex Ivdaeorvm," (The Latin "I" and "V" is the English "J" and "U" respectively) which means, "Jesus of Nazareth, King of Jews." Score one for Pontius Pilate's sense of humour.
