I learned (a local variant of) Hungarian naming convention (also apparently known as Hungarian notation) early on in software development. I'm still not sure it was a good idea, but it was certainly due to a Hungarian. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Simonyi https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Simonyi I've also been to Budapest, but despite the above the locals and I still could not communicate with one another except in english.

There's System Hungarian, which was apparently the result of a misunderstanding, and Apps Hungarian, which is actually useful: https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2005/05/11/making-wrong-code-look-wrong/ https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2005/05/11/making-wrong-code-... I use Apps Hungarian in my own code.
