I don't think "iphone 6S" really is a good name for a phone. 4S and 5S were okay, but the pronunciation of the 6 makes the S sound messy.

What do you think? Will Apple call it something else?

Some were saying similar things about 4s and 5s (and 5c) at one point to.

Say 6S over and over and it's the iPhone SUCCESS!

Please don't do it apple!

Just like the "NEW IPAD" (ipad 3). =)

Considering the box has already been leaked I'm about 110% sure it will be called the 6S.

6(S) sounds fine to me, actually better than 5(S) or 4(S).

The problem for me lies in 6 Plus (S) or 6 (S) Plus; that sounds just awful. In another thread, someone mentioned that Apple could drop the current 6 Plus and only keep the new generation alive as a flagship model. This could be interesting when combined with the awful potential name.
