I would have never thought they would call it ip6 (although I get the theory about the 4s being the 5th iphone) but if they launch ios6 in the new phone-- the idea starts to pick up speed.
I wonder if they will just call it iPhone and give it the (6th generation) title like they've doe the new iPad.???
I agree completely with the OP that if they keep the numbering scheme iPhone 6 makes the most sense. It is the 6th iPhone and will most likely be released with iOS 6 and the A6 processor. However I feel that it is more likely for it to just be called the new iPhone or iPhone (6th generation) to fall in line with other Apple products and avoid any numbering confusion.

The next iPhone will be called.....wait for it...."The NEW iPhone"

Correct, with apple not naming the new iPad a iPad 3 its a clear indication they are moving away from the numbers. All their other products are not numbered and I think it's something the fans more than likely started by numbering the phones.

Probably the New iPhone.Agreed. I dont see them calling next iPhone the 5.
Why not simply keep it iPhone? iMac & MacBook Pro stay the same afterall.
Not really. The ipad is more along the lines of their computers which also do not have numbers. If the iphone comes out and is not numbered then yes they are moving away from the number scheme. I still think they will keep a number scheme for iphones.
Because causing mass confusion for people is a bad idea. Just because Apple isn't calling the third gen iPad the "iPad 3", doesn't mean they should do the same thing with the iPhone 5.
