My 2 cents:

1. `modified' is fine as the field name. +1.
   It's short and clear enough.

2. Function names should include something like
   `date' or `time'.  This is because there can be
   other functions, which refer to other things
   about modified (i.e., unsaved) bookmarks.

   E.g., the Bookmark+ code has these functions,
   which return things such as an alist of just the
   modified bookmarks:

   bmkp-modified-bookmark-p - predicate
   bmkp-modified-cp         - predicate
   bmkp-modified-bookmarks  - alist
   bmkp-bmenu-sort-modified-before-unmodified
                            - sort command

3. +1 for `created'.  (I suggested this earlier.)

HTH.
