Press Release:

As of 1 February 2007, Intelsat will change the names of 16 of its 51 satellites. The name change is part of our integration efforts, and is being implemented based in part on consensus feedback and recommendations from our customer community.

The changes being implemented are the following:

1. Galaxy (G) replaces the Intelsat Americas (IA) brand

2. Intelsat (IS) replaces the PanAmSat brand (PAS)

3. Unique or joint venture satellites, such as SBS-6, Horizons or APR, will retain the same name.

Which you can also find the press release.
 
Man...for IA5 and IA6 (soon to be Galaxy 25 and 26), it's going to be quite a headache as far as the networks, syndicators, and stations are concerned.
