Someone from the inside, according to Online gaming publication CVG, has claimed that Nintendo is thinking of maybe changing the Wii U's name. A lot of people were confused after the announcement at E3 over the Wii u, unsatisfied, and Nintendo since then has repeatedly tried to clear things up for everyone. Nintendo is trying to please it's customers, so this may be a end result as to why they are thinking of changing the name due to the large negative feedback over it. Only way to know is to keep on waiting until next E3.
The original reason behind the Wii U started with the Wii. The Wii's name was supposed to sound just like it looks,'We'. The system was actually developed to appeal to everyone instead of just hardcore gamers. It was meant to be a family gaming system, and that's really what we got from it, apart from some excellent traditional Nintendo games.
The Wii U was another thing, Nintendo decided it was it's time to go back to it's hardcore gamers, as addressed at last years E3, and went with a name that basically said, 'Wii YOU', a good playoff of it's soon-to-be former system.
