What promtped this question is that I had an epub (converted into KF8 with calibre) that had some text styled with the font-family "Courier" and some with the font-family "Monotype Corsiva" (with "cursive" as the fallback) (again, this was all simply through the css stylesheet, not through embedded .tff files). When I opened it in my Kindle 4, it rendered the Courier in a monospace font and the Corsiva in the Helvetica (sans-serif) font. I was merely trying to determine whether a) there were other fonts that the K4 and KT rendered natively, and what was the replacement algorithm for which CSS-styled fonts to render as which Kindle fonts.
