If you are starting a project, but you have no idea how to call it, maybe just a placeholder, how do you name it?
My goto is Douglas1 or test1, how about yours?

I use the word yolo all over my dev environment in various contexts.
When running each loops, I always assign the
each
variable as x, y, or z.Also, a lot of things are called
asdf
or some variation of that.Iβm running on the βiβ, βjβ religion. But I can totally understand that
i, j, k FTW!
Gotta respect that unit vector
I name things based on what I'm thinking right at that moment.
Had a dev on a production app that I had to code review more times than I would have expected because he would use single letter variable names.
Made my heart sad every time I saw it.

If I don't have a descriptive name for something, I won't do it. My manager and I have sat down for over a day before trying to figure out what to call certain things. For us, since we're creating a department, it's important that anyone could walk into the job and know exactly what we mean.
I usually start with a name that I think captures what I'm working on. Maybe a branch name, or a directory name. Then about 2hours, or 2days later, I make a PR with a subject and branch name that absolutely don't line up.
Sometimes I'm right though, and it feels satisfying. But often wrong, for example, from today:
fix/trigger-action
:)
my first choice while learning a lang or lib is "hello x", like "hellodart".
Then, when I want to do something more involved, its usually dartymcdartface.
The commit-messages for my playaround-projects are mostly some song-lyrics that happen to play either in my head or headphones while i do the commit, like "bluebirds are so natural".
(Same with savegames back when one could name savegames in PC-games)
I use the names of Greek Gods or animals. Like Zeus or narwhal.
I don't do it. I will literally sit, flow-stopped, doing nothing, until I think of a good descriptive name.
I used i, j, k for loops, and every other letter for other variables.
Waffles and pickles abound in my projects, be they classnames, logging or project names.
