looking back ICQ and AOL probably just ripped off XMPP

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICQ
ICQ New is a cross-platform instant messaging (IM) and VoIP client. The name ICQ derives from the English phrase "I Seek You".[1]
Originally developed by the Israeli company Mirabilis in 1996,
established in June 1996 by five Israeli developers: Yair Goldfinger, Sefi Vigiser, Amnon Amir, Arik Vardi, and Arik's father Yossi Vardi.[10] ICQ was one of the first text-based messengers to reach a wide range of users.[11]

Edit: AIM also existed before the first XMPP draft. -
