Looking over the New_logo_ideas page, my vote is for the snowflake logo:
http://haskell.org/sitewiki/images/9/98/Haskell-Symstar.png
(I would simplify it, though, by removing the motto pure - lazy - fun.)
I like this logo because it works well on two different levels. For those

When accurate names for Haskell concepts already exist we should use
them (as we have tried in the past). There has been too much

I think the accusation is more that Haskell tries to be cryptic and
arcane *on purpose*, just to confuse people.
Sure, there are many concepts in Haskell which just aren't found
anywhere else. But monads?
I must agree, the proposal pure . lazy . fun is quite funny and
informative at the same time.
It will hopefully also supply people with something to laugh about
when they have learned enough. :)
While being true, it's also subtle.
