I've never really like the word "anti-pattern". Anti-patterns are still patterns of sorts instead of pure entropy.
How about just "common mistakes" or "discouraged/deprecated/error-prone/incorrect patterns" or something?

Anti just means "against". The opponent could also fit the suffix (antithesis) or not (antisocial).
Contrast with "non" or "a" or "un'.
Oddly enough the DRY principle seems to discourage patterns, but in the end it seems that it's a matter of moderation.
