I'm constantly getting "The Green Screen" system, or the RPG system. And the PC guys I work with keep thinking that you can do everything with DB2 for the i that you can do with DB2 for Windows or 'nix systems. We do have a loveable but strange bird here.

The name remains unchanged for 2 years running (how many name changes
since 2000????). Frankly, I think there have been name changes I totally
missed.
I can type the name of the system into a document and not have to fight
with the software regarding spelling (always trying capitalize the "i" for
me.
It has a completely different look and feel.
I can get my users to quit calling it "the DOS system" (ugh...) or 5250 or
any of dozens of other names.
IBM actually markets a name for the system.
I'll take any 3 of the above.
