mcv_freqs looks good. I'd write the glossary entries as singular (Most Common Frequency, Most Common Value) since our typical usage is to pluralize them at the point of use ("MCVs"). Also, just expanding the acronym doesn't seem that helpful. Maybe more like MCF Most Common Frequency, that is the frequency associated with some Most Common Value MCV Most Common Value, one of the values appearing most often within a particular table column regards, tom lane
