Actually, no. IP is Internet Protocol, singular, and is the L3 (mostly - 
IP predates the ISO/OSI model layers, so IP suite protocols don't map 
exactly) protocol upon which both TCP and UDP are built. It's defined by 
RFC 791.

TCP/IP, simply because those are the most commonly used protocols in the 
suite.
