In Cantonese 14 sounds similar to the word for death, or dead.
Don't give a Cantonese a clock or watch as a gift for similar reasons.

zMan's question is a good one, but the reversion to just 14 for the
year 2014 does add credence to the notion that superstition was the
rationale for the one-off 2013 scheme.

chosen more sexy name?

I've seen lots of NDA technical material over the years, but in my
experience IBM has *never* disclosed any branding info to ISVs before

ISV may not know the names, just because they don't need to know names.
They need to know technical details of zNEXT.

Z196 = 1st generation 96 cores. It was a silly name.
IBM has been very tight-lipped about the next machine. No models have been
mentioned. No availability dates have been given. No features have been
discussed.

Rocket Software
My bet:
BHV3B4
Reason: completely unrelated to the predecessor,
Of course B4 is number of procesors in hex, 3 could be understood as
third generation (z196 - 1 was first generation), V is for
Virtualization, finally BH stand for absolutely nothing.
