Is it possible to have a third backup name server in case the first two fail?

Recently I had a site go down for about an hour when a CloudFlare datacenter went down. We have the option of setting a tertiary name server. Would this act as a failsafe, or do names servers work on a first come first server basis?

If a tertiary name server isn't the way to go, what's the best way to ensure the site stays up in case Cloudflare fails again?

You can currently only use the two CloudFlare nameservers at your registrar. While you could theoretically add another to your registar, this would then mean that some of those requests would not be proxied by CloudFlare (you would also likely get a notification from us that your nameservers have changed).

We are considering allowing for additional nameservers in the future. I also want to clarify that having one datacenter down doesn't mean that all of your site visitors would be having an issue, just those visitors that would hit that datacenter (I also realize this is little consolation).

The alternatives are for just this case, for when the main nameserver isn't available. However that only works if your site isn't on the same datacenter as the first and second nameservers.
