- Each name set should follow a cohesive theme: For example, same food group(spices, vegetables, oils), or same category of material(gems, rocks, metals).
- Each name in set should evoke a distinct sensory memory/experience. The word can be a direct refererence to a texture, taste, sound, etc or it can be an object related to a particular sense experience.
- Name sets should not violate existing copyright, trademark, etc and should not be any naming scheme already in use by another project or company.
- If a word is known to be used by another project it should be noted in the document.
- Words in name sets should be at least somewhat familiar to the average person, nothing too obscure should be used.
- Each name within a set should have distinct characteristics that can be divided up into subcategories or ordered by some known quality( see example below)
