3.1.2. Naming

Following conventions apply to symbol names:

  • Language must be American English (en_US)

  • Title case (e.g. “Capacitor Bipolar” instead of “Capacitor bipolar”)

  • Singular names, not plural (e.g. “Diode” instead of “Diodes”)

  • If reasonable, start with the generic term (e.g. “Supply GND” instead of “GND Supply”) to improve navigation in sorted lists (all supply symbols are listed next to each other)
