I think everyone likes the names without postfixes more, but there's the issue with name clashes. I, on the other hand, avoided the
clash of the central class name in my library - constrained - by calling the library Constrained Value and the namespace
constrained_value. But in some cases it's not easy to make up a meaningful and not ugly name.
