You're thinking Danny Ocean....

Except DoDo stinks, so now you'll have two extinct versions of Dodo... I wouldn't say they'd try it a third time....

i'm sure this has already been posted but i start to realize that we might see parts of the keynote held by jony ive, right? what do you guys think?
Banners are cool and pleasant feel..
The Banners are pretty cool using their own font helvetica neue
Ive designed similarly seeing those posters maybe apple is looking for their own fonts.. making a cleaner look in iOS 7 or OSX.9 can't wait to see the WWDC XIII

That would not work. Simply cause all the cats Apple used are known as sleek, powerful and fast animals. A sea turtle is nether sleek nor fast. Not a good image for a modern OS. The only one on your list that would work would be dolphin.
And the code name dolphin has already been used for the Nintendo Gamecube. But no reason why it can't be used again by someone else.
Definitely not Aperture X. They're only on version 3.
Also, definitely not Logic. Apple doesn't usually showcase pro apps. The did for Final Cut Pro X, and people b*tched about it sucking, but to be honest, Apple knows that industry is not making them money because let's face it: movie producers pirate software to cut corners in cost, so screw em.
But this event seems like it's going to truly be exciting
I just noticed this: OS X's interface is called Aqua, right? And there's a wave on the banner. Wave = water = aqua! I think they're redesigning OS X...
Corny Attempts at Jokes
Seriously, if I had dollar for every corny attempt at a joke in this thread based on a banner, I would probably have enough to buy the next generation of MacBook Air, iPad and iPhone.
Come on people, its a banner, with a 'X' representing the next version of OS X.
With the 'Cloud' defining computing, it could just be a logical 'next wave of software innovation' nothing more. Or, just the beginning of a new user experience. To be honest, OS X has had no serious overall in 12 years. Its really a time for a fresh set of paint in addition to uniformity across the board.
The wave could just be Jony Ive making his point, this release OS X is wave I am gonna use to wash away all the sh!+ Forstall created these past few releases.
Tsunami's are also waves which means, its a major release.
Someone posted the banner for 10.9, it looks like code names are being dropped. Jobs is not around anymore.
Researching on waves you can find some basic meanings:
Its not galactic like 10.5 to 10.8. Its a natural earth phenomenon, which means its more human, something you can better relate to. Don't expect in Galaxy wallpapers.
If you look at the type of wave on the banner, its known as a 'Breaking Wave'. Which means this release of OS X is breaking with the past.
Now, lets ease off the corny 'Sea Lion', Ocean, explicit description of a woman's private area with 'X' and other lame ones. Why? They are just not funny!

Things it will not be called:
Sea Lion
Dodo
Windows X
Or in fact any animal name at all..
It will just be a number. And then even the number will disappear. The name is unimportant. What it can do is what matters. That will be the new focus. Stripping the linkage to a single thing hampers Apple's ability to get across all it can do...

You do know you have the right to not be here if you don't want to? But clearly, you do, so quit whining
Err...maybe because Dolphin is a well-known Android browser? And a pretty cool one btw:

The wave is just the new design theme for OS X, like how galaxies have dominated the system since Leopard.
I expect 10.9 will just be a small, relatively featureless update named after yet another variety of Lion, like White Lion or something. And I wouldn't be surprised if this time, the update would be free of charge.
I don't expect Apple to overhaul the system until 10.10 or maybe even XI.

Or maybe it's the end of X and we'll be seeing XI. It does say "Where a new world is developing." Think about it...
Yes I remember that time. I remember the time, when Apple really cared about their computers and their naming schemes.
And I really loved the moment of irony during that keynote - when Steve introduced Jaguar, the first real OS X ready for prime time - and they showed that spotted X.
Really - perfect self-ironic moment when they even changed the Aqua-themed X from the Cheetah-disc to the spotted X of the Jaguar disk.
But after that you can see on the printed CDs how the battle of minimalistic Ive vs. sceuomorphistic Forstall took off. Lowest point was printing a real Cat on the CD (Snow Leopard) and then using a Cat Face-Shot for promo material (since Lion). These are the Forstall CDs. The Ive CDs can be found in Panther and Tiger - clean brushed metal X (as brushed metal replaced pinstripes) on black background, with the Tiger version using a more minimalistic X.
Analyzing this now I hope Forstall will never ever work for Apple again, I sincerely hope next OS X rocks and I maybe consider buying a Max again when they have cleaned up the mess, Forstall left.
---- edit ----
Forgot to say: And analyzing this I really understand why I personally see Tiger as the pinnacle of OS X development to date. Everything after was duct taped BS and not nearly as refined as Tiger was.
Maybe the X cross out theory means "don't Apple products wet." Could mean "wave" at your Apple TV(which is totally as lame as Siri on a TV.) I was an employee and I remember this redneck butthole saying "You know, I've waited for the day where I can tell my TV what to do." and thinking "So you've waited all you're life for a television you can talk to?..." I'm sorry, all of that is complete novelty crap..
