+title: "What's in a name? That which we call a var by any other name would make code smell"

+
+In today's (2026-01-27) chat we will discuss  names. 
+
+In Clean Code (Robert C. Martin), naming variables, functions, classes, and other structures is compared to naming a child. Yet we still see placeholders like x, tmp, or d littered throughout codebases.
+
+How do you approach naming?
+• Do you iterate endlessly? write → delete → rewrite—until the name feels perfect?
+• Do you drop a quick name and come back to refactor later?
+• Or do you stick with the first name and tell others to stop “wasting time” on naming?
+
+Everyone and anyone are welcome to [join](https://weeklydevchat.com/join/) as long as you are kind, supportive, and respectful of others.
