When is a function name too long?

Question

I try to be rather descriptive with my function names, where possible. This occasionally results in function names in the twenty to thirty character range such as \"GetActionFr

IMHO, it is much more important for functions to be descriptive. IDEs help much avoiding the trouble of mispelling or something like that. I think its ok to use abbreviations sometimes, as long as they are consistent through the code (no different abbreviations for the same thing, nor same abbreviation for two different things.
