Not bad actually.

Other socket names describe the role that user plays with respect to the 
particular socket: I'm a PUBlisher. I'm a SUBscriber. I'm a REQuester 
(don't confuse that with "sender of REQuests" -- REQuester both sends 
requests and receives replies). I'm a REPlier.

"I'm a message SOURCE" and "I'm a message SINK" kind of fits in.

Alternative would be PRODUCER and CONSUMER but these are semantically 
pretty overloaded.
