I think this is incorrect. The earliest IAB was created by the ARPA program
manager Vint Cert in 1981. (In fact, I probably have some scribbled notes
from the first IAB meeting). Vint chose the name "Activities" to prevent a
rush of people wanting to join. ;-) Its function was in fact "advisory", to
give Vint advice on the technical course of the Internet research project
I do not recall (without digging into my files) when/if the official IAB name
expansion was changed to Internet Advisory Board.
V Cerf seems to think...

"In January, 1983, the Defense Communications Agency, then responsible
for the operation of the ARPANET, declared the TCP/IP protocol suite
to be standard for the ARPANET and all systems on the network
converted from the earlier Network Control Program (NCP) to TCP/IP.
Late that year, the ICCB was reorganized by Dr. Barry Leiner, Cerf's
successor at DARPA, around a series of task forces considering
different technical aspects of internetting. The re-organized group
was named the Internet Activities Board."
