Si, First try this YYYY0MM0DD0hh0mm0ss for your Journal tiddler, This is working for me. Try on tiddlywiki.com Perhaps something is interfering with yours.
I notice for this in one wiki I need to reload the wiki to refresh the date used for Journal tiddlers. This is a feature because Journals tend to be daily tiddlers as is be default. Rather than use the new Journal button you may be better served creating your own new tiddler button that meets your needs. As I understand it The tiddler in which the New Journal obtains the date from the now macro using the format in $:/config/NewJournal/Title needs to refresh to capture the next time/date. Research shows $:/core/ui/Buttons/new-journal (uses $:/core/ui/Actions/new-journal) and $:/core/ui/Buttons/new-journal-here creates the title from now in itself.
