All definitions in type-* are based on the more extended naming of fonts,
i.e. the -encoding scheme; now, on my machine (with map loading enabled) i
can say:
\definetypeface[charter] [rm][serif][charter] [default][encoding=texnansi]
\definetypeface[utopia] [rm][serif][utopia] [default][encoding=texnansi]
\definetypeface[bookman] [rm][serif][bookman] [default][encoding=texnansi]
\definetypeface[palatino][rm][serif][palatino][default][encoding=texnansi]
\starttext
\switchtobodyfont[ 10pt] \input tufte \par
\switchtobodyfont[charter, 10pt] \input tufte \par
\switchtobodyfont[utopia, 10pt] \input tufte \par
\switchtobodyfont[bookman, 10pt] \input tufte \par
\switchtobodyfont[palatino,10pt] \input tufte \par
\stoptext
So, the free fonts on tex live (there are some more defined) are already
available!
If you want, i can send you a zip with the texmf-fonts tree (as generated
by texfont) that is needed for this.
If you want berry names, you can start your file with
\usetypescript[berry][texnansi]
or [ec] if you've used encoding=ec
