A naming convention should be used in the process of working with databases because of several reasons: • It provides a clear structure, each component using the standard naming rules. • The database logic can be understood by anyone knowing the naming convention. • Maintenance work is reduced, as future developers will not have to waste time figuring out what each field is. Whatever the naming convention, make sure it becomes a standard across the company and is followed by everyone in your department.
