Might I suggest an alternative approach, which will work with any predicate?
Since the real issue is the vagueness of `unknown', why not tweak
`type-name' so it will instead return the name of the predicate if
there's no match in type-p-name-alist? This also has the added
benefit of producing useful information with user-defined predicates.
(define-public (type-name predicate)
(let ((entry (assoc predicate type-p-name-alist)))
(if (pair? entry) (cdr entry)
(symbol->string (procedure-name predicate)))))

Neil
