It's part of the philosophy of RavenDB to do convention over configuration, so it does this by default.

But you can override it if you want to, you can do something like this:

_documentStore = new DocumentStore { Url = "http://localhost:8080/" };
_documentStore.Conventions.FindTypeTagName = t =>
{
    if (t.Name == "MyClass")
        return "MyClassBlahBlah";
    else
        return Raven.Client.Util.Inflector.Pluralize(t.Name); 
};

_documentStore.Initialize();
