Trevor,

I don't know - interesting question.  I guess I never thought of that.
It could be named BPCS, but they more often here refer to it as the
"AS400" than they do to BPCS.  The two are synonymous.  My choice would
be to name it based on the platform - as that is the underlying reason
for the success of the software package(s) which run on it.

Don,

How about a different approach? Why don't you name the icon the name of
the Software Application - rather than the hardware? What are they
accessing when they click on that icon?

Then, when they are nice and happy, give them a "Best System i User of
the Week" award!
