(*I HOPE* I understand what you mean, otherwise you will get angry and thumbdown my answer!)
The icon and the word are separate birds, in that you can display one or the other or both...When creating the icon (like, say, with ICOFX) you can create the background of the icon as a transparent color. In SOME graphics programs, like Gimp, this is called an "alpha channel". (Whatever!)
It becomes transparent and lets the background show through when you save the icon. You have to remember to save the icon that way (as I often forget to do) or else the icon shows up as a purdy picture with a box behind it.
Most of the icon creation programs I use have a separate "paintbrush color" for the transparent background.
