for the greaterthan (don't know the real name)The offical ISO name is indeed "GREATER-THAN SIGN".
The Jargon File lists the following common names, in rough order of popularity:
In INTERCAL, it's called the "right angle".< > Common: <less/greater than>; bra/ket; l/r angle; l/r angle bracket; l/ +r broket. Rare: from/{into, towards}; read from/write to; suck/blow; +comes-from/gozinta; in/out; crunch/zap (all from UNIX); tic/tac; [ang +le/right angle].
