A naming convention is a convention for naming things.

Description

Conventions differ in their intents, which may include to:

  • Allow useful information to be deduced from the names based on regularities. For instance, in Manhattan, streets are consecutively numbered; with East-West streets called "Streets" and North-South streets called "Avenues".
  • Show relationships, and in most personal naming conventions
  • Ensure that each name is unique for some scope

Computer programming

Naming conventions are essential to computer programming. See Naming convention (programming).
