I thought L also stands for long wheel base, such as 740iL versus 740i.

In fact the first BMW having an "I" was not fuel-injected, it was the 18oo TI from 1964, the letters standing for "Touring International". This model developed in 1969 into the fuel-injected 2000 tii, from this car on the "i" stood for fuel injection.
So, if they had gone with German, we might have had a 2000 tie? Of course, MB or Audi would have had to come out with a "tie" fighter!
