Past parks: The Polo Grounds in New York and Shibe Park in Philadelphia.
Current parks: The Great American Ballpark in Cincinnati and Camden Yards in Baltimore.
One side note: My vote for worst name is Sicks Stadium. The home for 1 year of the Seattle Pilots before they moved to Milwaukee to become the Brewers. Named after the owner, Emil Sick.

Candlestick Park is definately the most unique.
For Minor Leagues there is a team in Surprise, Arizona playing in Surprise Stadium. The Arizona League Rangers. Are you surprised?

There is a sportswriter in town who nicknamed Citizens Bank Park the Money Pit.
My favorite would be Connie Mack Stadium, never been there but I always liked the name of it.

I grew up in Philadelphia, so maybe I'm biased, but I always thought naming a stadium to honor veterans...Veterans' Memorial Stadium (even though most people took the "Memorial" out)...was a cool thing to do.
The Vet had a bad wrap, but no one could argue the veterans of America weren't worth honoring.

There's a variety of choices, but NO corporate-sponsored names should be considered.
My personal favorite is the home park of the Rancho Cucamonga Quakes -- The Epicenter. http://www.rcquakes.com/stadium/

Metrodome
The Homer Dome
Though it's a junky piece of crap, it's a cool name!
