I like "Mean Streak" It's clever. I can tell you another thing, I think "Mantis" is the worst named coaster at CP.
Really, I actually like the name Mantis, in fact I think that it is probably my favorite. I also, strangely, like the fun play on words with DISpatch mASTER Transport.
My favorite coaster name is Disaster Transport. It's unique and original.

"Welcome back riders, DID YOU ENJOY YOUR FLIGHT?"
Mine would have to be Raptor. I think of Raptor as the most powerful bird.
Gemini is my favorite by far. Love the name, loved the font for it...and a great ride too.

I think Blue Streak is a cool name, if you look it up, it means something that travels fast, and I am guessing 45 MPH was a pretty descent speed back in the 60's.
Another name I really like is Corkscrew. Sure, its not original, but what else would fit it?
For the worst named coasters I have a tie:
Millennium Force (I am sick of Millennium stuff, coaster not included!) & Woodstock Express, just not too catchy.
Even though I haven't been on this coaster I love the name:
WOODSTOCK'S EXPRESS!
Are we just talking CP coasters? If not then I would have to say Appolo's Chariot, If we are talking only CP then I would say....Mean Streak

The more you ride it, the more you want it!

Raptor the name fits the ride elements quite well. Mean Streak is a second

Welcome back Millennium Force riders...We all want to know how was your RIDE!!!!!
MANTIS. I love the logo and the way it implies that the insect [the coaster] is grabbing you.
Bite your tongue Tohot2se. You shall never speek of that reched(sp?) name in the place of CP again

Remember to go tell the Mantis crew that Mantis is just a little bug and the Raptor could eat it.

My favorite is Gemini – it’s the perfect name for a big racing coaster.
Speaking of Magnum, I think it’s a good name, but at the risk of sounding stupid, what is a ‘Magnum’? I know there is a Magnum hand-gun, but I can not imagine that’s what CP was thinking about. Does it have another meaning?
When it was first announced, I thought the whole Millennium Force thing was just another way to over-hype the whole millennium thing. Now, that name is really starting to grow on me. I like it!!

Best logo and name from Cedar Fair: Banshee, Ghostrider is a close second because it is so simlar to Banshee.

Yeah I like the whole Disaster Transport idea with the name too. And also the name Mean Streak really appeals to me.
I know one other thing called Magnum......but this is a family forum. :oI
