There are two hooks for naming strategies in java.jdbc: * :identifiers - for converting ResultSet column names to keywords * :entities - for converting Clojure keywords/string to SQL entity names
:identifiers defaults to clojure.string/lower-case - so SQL column names become lowercase keywords. :entities defaults to identity - so Clojure keywords and strings simply become SQL table and column names as-is. A call to the quoted function is a suitable argument for :entities - available on delete!, insert!, update!, create-table-ddl and drop-table-ddl. For the execute! and query functions (and others), you pass raw SQL so you are expected to have taken care of quoting entities yourself. (insert! db-spec :fruit {:name "Apple" :appearance "Round" :cost 99} :entities (quoted \`)) In the generated SQL, this will produce `fruit`, `name`, `appearance`, and `cost`. The docstrings on the new API could certainly make that clearer. I'm planning to overhaul the docstrings now the API is stable and public - since I can see that the arglists alone are far from satisfactory - and I'm also in the middle of a major overhaul of the java.jdbc section of clojure-doc.org to provide more examples, with full tutorials on each of the major functions. Does that help?
