How about: Debian all-said-and-done, debian getting-there, and debian work-in-progress.
testing is certianly broken too often to consider for normal users,
and stable has plenty of uses outside an enterprise.

stable has stable version numbers.
unstable has unstable version numbers.
testing has well something in between.
