Name of this loop

If you take the word iconic and wrap it around something and have the ic and the end of iconic over lap each other it looks like it spells icon or iconic over and over again. Does this phenomenon have a name?

My guess in "no", unless it's a very special term in an abstruse branch of mathematics.

The ordinary word "loop", as in your post header, should do pretty well. Also, "infinite loop", "overlapping", and "reiterative" come to mind.
