	Name
		Naming is the process of assigning a particular word or phrase to a pattern that has been noticed.
		Either as a part of the naming process or later as usage is observed and studied by lexicographers the word may be defined by a description of the pattern it refers to.
		It is universal for a person to have a name; the rare exceptions occur in the cases of mentally disturbed parents, or wild children[?] growing up in isolation.

	Personal name - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is nearly universal for a human person to have a name; the rare exceptions occur in the cases of mentally disturbed parents, or feral children growing up in isolation.
		A personal name is usually given at birth or at a young age, and is usually kept throughout life; there might be additional names indicating family relationships, area of residence, and so on.
		In contemporary Western society (except for Iceland and Hungary), the most common naming convention is that of a given name, usually indicating the child's sex, followed by the parents' family name.

		Convention: Do not capitalize second and subsequent words unless the title is a proper noun (such as a name) or is otherwise almost always capitalized.e.g.
		Convention: In general only create page titles that are in the singular, unless that noun is always in a plural form in English (such as scissors or trousers).
		Convention: Avoid the use of acronyms in page naming unless the term you are naming is almost exclusively known only by its acronym and is widely known and used in that form (NASA and radar are good examples).

	Mailman List Administrator's Guide
		This is the name by which the list will be referred to in all automatically generated messages as well as on the listing of lists available on the server.
		Because list membership is checked easily through the web, the list manager may not feel that it is necessary to know of all of the comings and goings of list members (especially on large lists with a lot of turnover).
		List members: this is the traditional setting for most lists, allowing participants to see who the other people on the list are but blocking view to the general public.

	Wikinfo \| Name
		A name is a label to things, people, places, brand names and even ideas or concepts, originally in order to distinguish one another.
		Patronymic: the given name of a relative, usually the father or mother, or a name derived from this.
		The Inuits believe that the souls of the namesakes are one, so they traditionally refer to the junior namesakes, not just by the names (atiq), but also by kinship title, which applies across gender and generation without implications of disrespect or seniority.

	ABC ~ All 'Bout Computers, Volume 9: Database Naming Conventions
		By using the simple convention of adding a prefix to your table's name, you can more easily locate the table you are looking for; it also helps avoid confusion between names of tables and names of queries, since Access considers a table and a query to be the same type of object.
		A common convention is to add "tbl" to the beginning of a table name, "qry" to the beginning of a query, "frm" to the beginning of a form, and so on.
		As I said early on, the importance of using a naming convention is not in which one or why but simply that you find one you are comfortable with and stick with it.

	Database object naming conventions (For SQL Server databases, tables, views, triggers, indexes, primary keys, foreign ...
		Same naming convention can be used with junction tables that are used to link two many-to-many related base tables.
		Advantage of this convention is that in multi-table queries involving complex joins, you don't have to worry about ambiguous column names, and don't have to use table aliases to prefix the columns.
		Use the column name to which these defaults/check constraints are bound to and prefix it with 'def' and 'chk' prefixes respectively for Default and Check constraints.

	List Owner's Manual for LISTSERV Version 14.5
		Before you start your list, it pays to do a careful search in several places to find out if you are duplicating an already-existing list, or if the name you are considering is already in use for a list on a differing subject.
		When choosing a name for a list, there are a few conventions and restrictions that you should keep in mind.
		The length of the list name (that is, the name of the list file and thus the "official" name of the list) is restricted as follows:

		The name of a lesson should describe the topic being taught, so instead of saying "Wiki 101", the name of the lesson should be "Introduction to Wiki".

		I don't spend a lot of time deconstructing peoples sites to examine their naming conventions but anybody who does want to build decent sites and doesn't already employ a naming system so logical as suggested here can't be right in the head.
		That's where such a naming convention makes sense and, which might not be a big surprise, that's where it's usually practiced.
		They chose to use the same naming convention as the portal guys, so that when it appears in the portal, it picks up the portal CSS automatically, and the presentation is consistent.

	LINGUIST List 10.19: Naming conventions, Speaking rate
		Hello, My name is Graham Rhind, and I am a specialist and author in the field of international address and name data management.
		The information is slanted towards given and family names, and how these change within and between families, as this is the issue which is faced by managers of international data.
		For example, I discuss the double first and double last names for Spanish- and Portuguese-speakers and how these are formulated; the use in Iceland of the first name of the father plus -son or -dottir as a surname for children; name order (such as last name then first name as in Hungary); name composition, e.g.

	.NET Naming Conventions and Programming Standards (C#.Net, VB.Net, J#.Net) and Best Practices - irritatedVowel.com ...
		Use of "m_" is discouraged, as is use of a variable name that differs from the property by only case, especially with protected variables as that violates compliance, and will make your life a pain if you program in VB.NET, as you would have to name your members something different from the accessor/mutator properties.
		I personally prefer it over straight underscore-less camel case for my private variables so that I don't have to qualify variable names with "this." to distinguish from parameters in constructors or elsewhere where I likely will have a naming collision.
		Now, rather than memorizing lists of prefixes, or prefixing everyghing with "obj", programmers are able to concentrate on the purpose of the variable rather than the underlying type.

		This article presents the conventions used in the GroboUtils project (http://groboutils.sourceforge.net) for Java tests based on the JUnit testing framework.

		In order to avoid test naming colisions, which can happen often between categories of the same project, I give each test class a name dependent upon the class tested (or test description) and the test category.

	SQL Server database coding conventions, best practices, programming guidelines and techniques, tips and tricks: ...
		Decide upon a database naming convention, standardize it across your organization and be consistent in following it.
		A table scan or an index scan is a very bad thing and should be avoided where possible (sometimes when the table is too small or when the whole table needs to be processed, the optimizer will choose a table or index scan).
		Whenever SQL Server encounters a procedure name starting with sp_,, it first tries to locate the procedure in the master database, then looks for any qualifiers (database, owner) provided, then using dbo as the owner.
