 <ul>
 <li \>Verbosity is encouraged. Variables should always be as verbose as practical. Terse variable names such as "$i" and "$n" are discouraged for anything other than the smallest loop contexts. If a loop contains more than 20 lines of code, the variables for the indices need to have more descriptive names.
 </ul>

+<ul>
+<li \>Within the framework certain generic object variables should always use the following names:
+    <ul>
+
+    <li \> Doctrine_Connection  -> <i>$conn</i>
+    <li \> Doctrine_Collection  -> <i>$coll</i>
+    <li \> Doctrine_Manager     -> <i>$manager</i>
+    <li \> Doctrine_Query       -> <i>$query</i>
+    <li \> Doctrine_Db          -> <i>$db</i>
+
+    </ul>
+    There are cases when more descriptive names are more appropriate (for example when multiple objects of the same class are used in same context),
+    in that case it is allowed to use different names than the ones mentioned.
