My one concern with the idea is the widespread belief that "humorous" and "serious" are antonyms.

Well, it's a known flaw. Can't see how this would make it worse, and it might cause useful discussion etc.

How about "Best Fantasy Novel That Makes You Laugh (among other things)"? Though that may be a bit too long.

This would be an excellent opportunity to explain (in Pterry's own words) just how much they are not. :D All the more reason for such an award to exist, AND to be named for him!
