Isn't a set singular?

So a set refers to one set such as a table containing People, but more than one set 
(sets - plural) would be like People and Organization (two sets).

So a table name should be singular using the set reference :P

As said there is no definitive but here's my two pennies worth.

>> After all, we are talking about sets here, and it's natural to
pluralise them.

My old database teacher would have a fit with that... but each to their
own :)  

We use two words to describe (and name) each table

An example here would be

TABLE: PROJECT_DETAIL
COLUMN: PD_ID, PD_NAME... etc

The column name is collapsed two a two letter prefix, not actually came
across a time when their was a duplicate prefix within a schema but I'm
sure if it happened you could use a different

Anyways...
