Eric,
I prefer to name any object with a single word
("LastBackupDate5" for instance) and *always* quoted even if XTalks
don't make it compulsory in this case.
And to retrieve the right suffix, instead of using last word, I just
use char x to -1:

Right! I always, always quote string literals as well, even though
Rev will handle it for me if I don't.
But on the other idea, this is exactly the problem I'm trying to
solve. :) It's cumbersome because you've got the problem of a
variant number of items and length of the label prefix.
I use an underscore between the alphanumeric prefix and the
identifying number. ;-)
Single word object names, plus it's easy to deal with varying lengths
simply by using:
set the itemdelimiter to "_"

P.S. I didn't even *know* you could leave string literal names
unquouted...
