I use numbers, first column is C1, second column C2 etc. Tables are T1, T2, .. and stored proc are of course P1, P2 and so on. It confuses the hell out of the users, scares the shit out of the developers, cause IS managers to resign and -nobody- messes with any of my databases.

One DBA, one leadpipe!
