   I have been seeing this sort of thing around a lot while customizing themes.

   <?php esc_attr_e( 'Skip to primary content', 'twentyeleven' ); ?>

   Why does it say "twentyeleven" in there? I am seeing this in a ton of different PHP functions in multiple themes (different name depending on the theme of course).

   I tried removing them to see what it would do, and it didn't break anything. So what purpose do they serve?

   It's part of the language translation component of WordPress... see more about that particular function here. Also, WordPress in Your Language.
