Email (from the French emaileux) is kind of crazy.
History
Emails were created by Jean d'Emaileux in 1886 when he tried to send a love letter through his cellphone. To d'Emaileux's dismay, cellphones were not yet invented and he could not enjoy the epic song Hello My Baby on radio even though the radio had been invented. To solve the problem, d'Emaileux created his service "Emaileux" and then everyone loved it but then over in Britain, John the Email stole the concept and changed the name to "Email."
