But what does FCI stand for? First Class Invader...?

FCI stands for "First Class Incoming". This is printed on your boarding pass when you are on a First Class ticket, but your connecting flight is in Business Class (e.g. no domestic First Class). That way you can use the FCL and check-in with you Business Class Boarding Pass.
