I agree with both of you. Interstingly, some of the DBA's I've worked with don't like that approach because it makes the table names "too long".

Poorly chosen name
A friend who works in operational-support observed a development group do this...
A new DB table needed to be created, so they requested that it be given a certain name. That name had already been used. They chose another name. That name had also already been used. After three more tries, they got PO'd, as it was late, they just told the DBA to name the table 'asshole'. Two days later, the app was deployed, and log entries started showing up on the operator console; every time someone added a new row:
inserting ... into asshole
The support folks were not amused; go figure.
