Ain't that the truth,

I 'know' it was made in 1975, and I watched it in 1975, but when you put it like that,

It's another dimension!

ProjectX for the primary namespace and then ProjectX.Whatever, etc., maybe ProjectX.Model, ProjectX.DAL, ProjectX.Common where ProjectX is the name of the project. And sometimes it is.

I follow the Java standard for package names, so everything is under com.vilmos. Actually that's a lie, it's mostly com.lexa, but that's because there is a master project called Lexa.

Bleh, I hate that convention... Why, when I'm searching through my endless list of dependencies (Don't get me started...), should I have to remember whether it's a com, net, or org?

.NET just does it better (Like so many things)... Anything in the basic framework is System., anything Windows-specific is Microsoft., and anything else is CompanyName.* or LibraryName.*

"CONSIDER using plural namespace names where appropriate."

Never pluralize.

The Joint Technical Committee (ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology, Subcommittee SC 32) that develops the SQL Standard has specified that one should follow ISO/IEC_11179[^] for naming. Which states Singular for Columns and Plural for Tables.

The point of following standards, even if you don't like the aesthetics, is (amongst others) to minimize ambiguity.
The concept behind it is as simple as it gets. A row is singular. A collection of rows is plural.
So reason one in your link is just conceptually wrong. Yes, an applebag can contain apples but you don't name the bag "Apple", you name it "Bag".
The content that you search are Apples.
But I guess that's why you see so many tables following the pattern "tblCustomer". Dead | X|

And the rest is just opinions.

As far as I'm concerned you can do as you want. But if you choose one way, you should stick to it. That's much more important

Since a solution can contain projects directly related to an app, as well as commonly shared projects, I use the following. Note that not all are needed:

** For the app itself
Company.Project.Core
Company.Project.DAL
Company.Project.BL
Company.Project.Entities
Company.Project.Shared
Company.Project.Tools
Company.Project.UI.WPF.Controls
Company.Project.UI.WPF.Desktop
Company.Project.UI.WPF.Phone
Company.Project.UI.WPF.Tablet
Company.Project.UI.Web.MVC

** Projects shared by many apps
Company.WPF.Controls
Company.WPF.Entities
Company.WPF.Themes
Company.WPF.Utilites

If it's not broken, fix it until it is
