I have seen he 0-8-8-0 called the Angus class.  Also, at one time, had 
8 or 9 names for the 4-8-4'
Don't recall which ones I had that you do not.

Rather than try to figure out how to put this in Files, or ask Roger 
Link to do it, I thought I'd send this out as an email. 
 
This is the result of decades of digging.  This is the most complete 
list I've seen, but I am absolutely not saying that it is COMPLETE.  I 
welcome supplementation--with some references if possible.  Now I've 
ignored the number nicknames ("The Big Sixes, the 600's,)and the 
"affectionate" nicknames (the Big Emmas).  Yes, I left in Chesapeake 
because....well, because.  Purely my own opinion, but I have 
disregarded tank engines.  To me the CNJ 4-6-4T is not a Hudson, and 
the German 2-8-4T, although interesting, is not a Berk.
 
Take your shots, but please read the notes at the bottom first.

America. Oddly enough, 2-6-4 was a very popular Lionel wheel 
arrangement.(2)Yes, Mastodon was used for the 4-8-0 and the 4-10-0.  
And it’s further ironic that the 4-10-0 hadtwo different names as there 
was only one locomotive of that type in theU.S.(on SP)(3)not generally
