  Is theme on WordPress.com has class naming standard? Eg: .entry-title for post title.

  HTML class naming is theme specific and is not standard across the themes. (Which is why the CSS resets every time we switch themes)

  Many themes on WordPress.com are based on the _s (Underscores) starter theme, so they follow that naming convention for key HTML elements.

  Home

  Other themes are not based on _S, and so class and ID names vary from theme-to-theme, as chaitanyamsv mentioned.
