That doesn't sound right. The model name is taken from the queryset's
model attribute, which will be ChildClass, and then the template name
will be ChildClass._meta.object_name.lower(), which will be
"childclass".
Which generic view are you calling that is exhibiting this behaviour? I
can't repeat it here and reading the code for a few random generic views
show that they're all doing the same thing when it comes to constructing
the template name.
Can you construct a short, complete example of two classes and a URL
pattern that demonstrates this problem?
