Most commonly it's simply a matter of naming things after what it does 
or is, mostly in a lower-case manner. Related objects should have 
similar names (like 'something' and 'something_form'.)
I don't think a Hungarian-notation concept has much place in an object 
publishing system. (I also don't care for it in programming, but that's 
a different area.)

"Code generators follow the 80/20 rule. They solve most of the problems, but not all of the problems. There are always features and edge cases that will need hand-coding. Even if code generation could build 100 percent of the application, there will still be an endless supply of boring meetings about feature design."
