Comment(by nacin):

 What about content types?

 How confusing will that be to the millions of users who aren't exposed to
 post types? More or less, instead of equating post types to a "content
 type," we'd need to relate them to "object types" instead. Ironically, had
 we gone with "object type" for #9674, the perfect name for this might have
 been post types.

 Alternative might be content styles. What questions will users ask
 themselves? I want to style this content this way? Or, what kind of
 content is this post? Seems like a dropdown in the publish box that has a
 label of "Style:", "Type:", or even "Content:" would all work just fine.
