+
+No hate at all Mike! 🙏
+
+I just find it funny, and it is honestly the longest (serious!) name I've ever encountered while working with Unity! 😎
+
+So much so that I still think about it every now and then! 😆
+
+**2/** **@mike_acton** ^1675240953735675904
+
+**@AlanZucconi**
+
+Honestly no worries, even if you did. As I said, I’d much rather the folks who care about finding “better” names are actually the ones that come up with them. I’m sure a PR with a good alternative would be considered by the team. :)

+

+
+At one of the places I worked, we abhorred abbreviations in variable names because:
+a) Auto-complete is a thing;
+b) Not everyone abbreviates words in the same way, especially internationally.
+
+Our code base became much easier to search once we did that.

+This is the way.
+
+Was dealing with turbojpeg api the other day;
+..GetImageMeta(int* Width,int* Height,int* SubSamp)
+What is subsamp???
+Subsample... of.....
+
+Turns out its the format of the chroma planes.
+
+Even there, did the author desperately need to save 2 characters?

+I agree! Had this recently where I was told in a PR to change member names and parameters from eg exception to err and request to req. It really caused me a lot of anguish.
+
+I’m a big fan of “German naming convention” AKA using actual descriptive names. https://chrisdone.com/posts/german-naming-convention/

+
+It’s very easy to tell when I named something.
+1) I prefer descriptive names.
+2) I don’t spend mental cycles trying to find the “best” or shortest name.
+3) People who really care about naming things often hate them, so they’ll do it for me next time and I won’t have to.
