When it comes to where the name Mike and Ike came from, this is still unknown to this day. There are several theories of course, from a comic strip called Mike and Ike, about two characters who looked alike to Mike and Ike being the names of winners from a company contest, and even a vaudeville (a comical theatre genre from the early 1900’s) song titled “Mike and Ike”.
