The best named monitor recently is probably the Waysus 22.

KV looks like a Sony prefix for CRT TVs (the "k" presumably stands for "kinescope", which is the name for a CRT in a number of non-English languages.)

But I think the long and mysterious-at-first-glance model numbering is usually a good thing since it encodes a lot of useful information.
