The article doesn't actually say it, but the 'A' in the name A14 almost certainly refers to the Angstrom unit of length.
Intel have similarly named their upcoming fabrication process 18A - so if TSMC had used 14A that would have been even more confusing than naming it the same as an old Apple chip.
Luckily, in TSMC's case, the number will be going down, not up, for any future fabrication processes.
