Agreed that the majority of the time is in 2012 and that could very well be the reason why its named that way. Just that when I first read Winter 2012 I was under the impression that it is for next years batch.

If I worked for YC and got to name the funding cycle I'd call it Winter 2011/12; both Winter 2011 and Winter 2012 are ambiguous imo. But I don't.
