Answer 1

It's just marketing.  They're different classes, but you should just concentrate on the actual specs.

Answer 2

The second letter is based on the power consumption and heat output with later letters in the alphabet meaning less power consumption.

The first letter seems to include some details of the cache and what generation the processor is from though some of that is also mixed into the second letter.  The list on Wikipedia is probably the best resource you'll find for figuring out what AMD meant when they named their processors.
