And I want make access to read x, y and bar. Probably I should

it for all private members?
A single leading underscore is usually used to denote a private
variable ( names prefixed with two leading underscores are
reserved for use by the compiler).
If you need any prefix at all, a single underscore is enough, and
it's also the tradition in other languages such as Python, C#...
Whether a private member is exposed as property or in some other
way, can be seen in the getter/setter, no need to classify it
into the member declaration.
C++ kind or requires a letter on top such as m_ simply because
any identifiers starting with an underscore are (mostly and
certainly at the global scope) reserved (namespace pollution
anyone?).
It's really up to you, we won't call the police ;)
