Re: [PHP] naming conventions From: Peter Houchin (peterh <email protected>)
Date: 07/27/01

It doesn't really matter as far as I know except you cannot have a space, and
its not common practice to use numbers with table names. The only thing that
really matters as far as I'm concerned is that I remember how I've named it be
it firstname or first_name or FirstName as long as you know then it doesn't
really matter

I am interested in how to best name fields in mysql - and any issues
that may arise.

For example look at these field names:
"First Name" - is there any problem with the space?
"firstname", "first_name" or "FirstName" - is there a preference here?

In short I want to know if more than personal preference is involved
in naming fields...
