IHOP has officially changed its name to IHOB. The name change was announced last week but the company did not announce what the new name stands for until this morning….
International House of Burgers.
Social media users have tried to guess the new name for days, and the company changed their Twitter information at about 7 a.m. this morning.
"burgers so burgerin’ good, we changed out name to IHOb. For burgers." The new Twitter says.
Dear Internet, we abbreciate your batience. Now let’s see who guessed right. B-hold!!!!! #IHOb pic.twitter.com/Fh3SkZ7s3Y

There is some talk on social media about the name change being temporary, but we will just have to wait and see.
