Jounce, also known as snap. Which to people of a certain cultural background explains where the names for the 5th and 6th derivatives come from.

It feels wrong to me that pop comes after crackle. Crackle seems like the ultimate high-frequency effect. In fact, "pop" seems like it should come before "snap". But I guess it is somewhat arbitrary.
