When word first spread that Apple planned to replace the iPhone 17 Plus with an ultra-thin device, we first called it the iPhone 17 Slim. Soon after that, as rumors continued to pop up, the iPhone 17 Air moniker appeared, which made more sense for this type of product.
Apple's MacBook Air is what turned the "Air" designator into a powerful brand for Apple. The Air was and continues to be the thinnest MacBook option in Apple's lineup. There's also an iPad Air that Apple sells, but the tablet isn't the thinnest iPad ever, now that the ultra-thin M4 iPad Pro.
With that in mind, the Air branding makes sense for the iPhone 17 Air and could help it see better sales than the iPhone 17 Plus. Apple will not confirm the commercial names of any future iPhones until it's ready to unveil them, but Mark Gurman claims that Apple has settled on the "iPhone 17 Air" moniker for the ultra-thin model.
