Well, it is a correct outcome of genion, but it is incorrect usage.  From genion -h:

"The ion molecule type, residue and atom names in all force fields are the
capitalized element names without sign. This molecule name should be given
with -pname or -nname, and the [molecules] section of your topology updated
accordingly, either by hand or with -p. Do not use an atom name instead!"
