We're writing a set of tools at work and I'm thinking of establishing
a naming convention to enforce, before we get more programs deployed.

I was thinking of verb-subject, or verb_subject, or viceversa.

As always, I looked at OpenBSD for inspiration, and found

pkg_*
ssh-*
rpc.*

where the prefix is actually a sort of name space. And

user*
group*
skey*

no separator between subject and verb.

Based on your experiences, and ignoring for a moment the "historical"
reason, which naming convention would you use and why.
