- Use a name that describes the file and some main parameters.
- For example, the title of a book, you may include 'Book - ' to make clear that this is the actual book and not a page about the book.
- Date: If there is a date, start the file with it like this: '2015 May 13'. First the year, then the month in letters, then the day.
- Location: Sometimes the location is important, for example for images, so you could include something like 'Paris' in the title.
- Do not make the titles too long because that will give problems with storing the files on hard disks and also with making thumbnails of images.
- Source: Suppose you made a pdf file of an article that you found in the New York Times. Then it's a good idea to include 'New York Times' in the title.
- Clean: Make your titles look clean, therefore no unnecessary underscores __ etc.
- Do not copy propaganda that is hidden in titles. This is not always possible, for example if the title is that of a book. But otherwise, be keen on this.
