Part zero made me chuckle! Whenever I start a project I go through the same motion of trying to find a good name for it. I am sure it is not rational, but somehow I would hate the project myself if the name doesn’t feel right.
- emmanueloga_ 6y agoI decided to pick a naming theme and name every new experiment folder accordingly. Works pretty well, surprisingly as/if your project evolves you tend to find connections with the (randomly picked) name. I'm using sea creatures lately :-).
- harshitaneja 6y agoI am going to try this. Naming is hard.
- bGl2YW5j 6y agoDef fun for personal projects, but when it comes to work, I've been on projects made up of multiple services with the silliest, vaguest names ever; all this did was made it impossible to remember what each service actually did! Such a hassle.
- freeopinion 6y agoI know, right? I can never keep C and D straight in my head. I think I'd be ok if it wasn't for R. It's all so confusing.

- chrismorgan 6y agoIf I can’t immediately decide on a good name, I like to take a single word (or occasionally as many as three) that describes it, and take the initial (or initials) and use that as a code name. That way I know I’ve got to change it, and avoid the risk of retaining a bad name because of inertia. One project I have going at present is code named “B”. Some previous examples have been “ABC”, “C” and “V”.
