I suggest Strict Normal Relaxed Free Looser and Loose are not good terms because they are not typical antonyms to Strict, and in a typographic setting the term loose usually applies to spatial relationships (e.g. loose letter spacing, loose line spacing) rather than something like linebreak logic. I don't think using names associated with particular media is a good idea, especially not media that might become obsolete long before CSS does. :) JH
