Django model naming convention

Question

What is the preferred naming convention for Django model classes?

Answer 1

As far as I know, the idea is that the class name should be singular and should use SentenceCase with no spaces. So you'd have names like:

Person
TelephoneNumber

Then the Django admin tool knows how to pluralise them. Doesn't work so nicely for names like:

Category

which gets pluralised as Categorys, but there we go...

Apart from that, just give it a name that means something to you and succinctly sums up what the class is meant to represent.
