What should we call it?   Call it whatever you like.

I hear that a lot.  As coders and builders of systems, we should take the time needed to come up with the best names for the systems, databases, tables, columns, filenames, modules, classes, methods, functions, and variable names, we create.

To name something is to know it.

Good names means less confusion and better understanding.  It makes talking about the system more natural.  It improves dialog between business users and the tech team.  In fact we should think as the business user when naming our components.

It makes it easier for you and others to maintain your code.

So take your time,  step back, think hard about what something truly is –  and name it accurately.
