Hmm, I think we'll have to wait and see before we know for certain as to whether or not the Fiesta name will be dropped. I've read a little bit about this the past few days, and everything else I've seen is that Ford are unsure about whether or not to keep the name - I think the Mail is jumping the gun a little there. It could well be that the name is changed, but we won't know for definite until the car is unveiled at the autumn motorshows.
As to the actual names that have been mentionned, I don't think it will be called Genesis since Hyundai are already planning on releasing a model called that. Phoenix, maybe, maybe not, since thats the name of a new engine range for Chrysler so could be legal isues there. Isis, perhaps more likely, even though it does sound similar to Iosis which IIRC was the codename for the new Mondeo.
In reality it could be anything yet at the moment, including Fiesta, so will just have to wait and see what happens.
