How to name factory like methods?

Question

I guess that most factory-like methods start with create. But why are they called \"create\"? Why not \"make\", \"produce\", \"build\", \"generate\" or something el

Answer 1

I'd call it UriFactory.Create()

Where,

UriFactory is the name of the class type which is provides method(s) that create Uri instances.

and Create() method is overloaded for as many as variations you have in your specs.

public static class UriFactory
{
    //Default Creator
    public static UriType Create() 
    {
    }

    //An overload for Create()
    public static UriType Create(someArgs) 
    {
    }
}
