There are a LOT more places where there's a reference to AS/400 and
iSeries. It just shows that not even IBMs internal people took the
name change serious-.

In my employeers software package, it took quite some time till i had
everyone persuaded to upgrade the branding - of course, now we have
several funny strings such as "System i OS" instead of i5/OS.

Again, if you get a 150 page branding guide, no one is willing to read
it and just call it what they want. This isn't good and should be
fixed, but it all ain't that easy.
