For a new product I can sort of understand it - the product doesn't have a name yet, but meanwhile you have to call it something. But for a new version of an existing product, where you know for example you're going to call it "Delphi something", what use is a code name?

One other point is that if the competition gets hold of the internal documents or emails of the company, they shouldn't know which products or versions the text refers to. -- David S.

That made sense some years ago when code names were kept highly internal. These days, though, how often do you read an article that actually uses both the code name and the anticipated product name together? For example, "The next version of X, code named Y".
