9to5Mac first reported that Apple referred to their operating system as MacOS instead of OS X. Although,  Apple has edited the page to change the names, there is still an archived version of the page that can still be viewed online. This suggests that the next major update on Apple's desktop operating system could be a new name. The MacOS was mentioned alongside tvOS, watchOS and iOS when Apple discussed their products and power consumption.

 "Years of use, which are based on first owners, are assumed to be four years for MacOS and tvOS devices and three years for iOS and watchOS devices," the previous version of the website stated.

Given that Apple has rebranded operating systems in the past; the name change is not completely a surprise. The Verge reports that Apple has been trying to make their naming schemes more uniform. Additionally, a framework file for OS X was found to contain a data called MacOS.

There are rumors that Apple will be introducing the new version of their Mac desktop operating system OS X 10.12 during the Worldwide Developers Conference 2016 which may be held in June this year. Mac Rumors shares that Apple may also be unveiling Siri on desktop Mac during the event.
