The PRST1 built-in fonts which are accessible from simple menu options are:
Serif
Amasis
Palatino Nova
Really No2
Sans-serif
Frutiger Neue
Univers Next
Verdana
You can also access the internal Droid serif and sans-serif fonts, but not from a simple menu.

Charis SIL (serif only), DejaVu (serif, sans, mono) and Droid (serif, sans, mono) fonts are all freely available and are worth a try.

I'm not sure just knowing the font names is enough. For instance, the PRST1's version of Amasis font does show Turkish chars but the NookSTR's version of Amasis does not. Even though I don't own a Nook, I managed to get hold of the NookSTR's built-in fonts to test by downloading the latest Nook upgrade file and unzipping it on the PC to extract the fonts directory.

Nook Malabar and Ysobel serif fonts show Turkish fonts OK.
