I will throw out a couple of others that hard hard rules in my code.

Variables are named like this:  MyVariableName
ColdFusion native functions:  DoSomeFunction()
User defined funtions:  doMyFunction()
Table and column names:   LikeThis
Objects/Filenames: LikeThis (This is the only one truly *matters* as you will 
find outside of WIndows)

So, after seeing it written out I guess my only exception is on 
functions/methods that I create just to give some differentiation between 
native functions and mine.
