In May 2006 Christian Perrier brought a discussion about choosing an "official" term that can refer to stable, testing or unstable to debian-project. Nothing happened as there didn't seem to be any consensus.
To go forward, a poll would help. Please add your vote. Terms proposed included "suite" and "branch". Status quo means not trying to uniformize the terms. A column left blank will be interpreted as if you don't have any opinion on that option.

"release" sounds immutable to me (which some of them obviously aren't), while "archive" sounds like a container which might store e.g. unstable |

"branch" has some danger of confusion when talking about branches of a Debian package in a version management system. testing and unstable will never be "releases", but "archive" maybe. |
