Agreed, will add an underscore.
> Ability to specify column names for datastores that may not have named columns

> Key: METAMODEL-244

> Project: Apache MetaModel
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Kasper Sørensen
> Assignee: Kasper Sørensen
>
> Some datastores don't necesarily define the column names/headers, just the
> data. Therefore it is sometimes needed to define column names manually - or
> even via some pluggable interface that would allow a custom naming strategy.
> I can think of the following modules where this would be relevant:
> * csv
> * fixed-width
> * excel
