Along the vein of cutesy CSS names:

http://trac.webkit.org/browser/trunk/Source/WebCore/css/CSSPropertyNames.in
was rather inspiring:

-webkit-writing-mode: blog
content: blog
"Style Overflow"
src=webkit
-webkit-perspective
onwebkit

That's all I got.  I'm not actually a big fan of any of those.  But
I'm sure *someone* witty reads this list. :)
