If this is good:

then why not this?

MyEO.class.getName());
Good question, and one that I should add to the best practice. The
second parameter is the entity name from the model, not the class
name.
Correct! However, eliminating string literals from code reduces
errors from some typos that won't be caught until run-time. So using
eogenerator to define the class constant (i.e., public static final
String) ENTITY_NAME in each EO class would minimize such errors with
some typos being caught at compile time:
MyEO eo = (MyEO) EOUtilities.createAndInsertInstance(ec,
MyEO.ENTITY_NAME);
But some typos would still sneak through until run-time:
MyEO eo = (MyEO) EOUtilities.createAndInsertInstance(ec,
YourEO.ENTITY_NAME);
Aloha,
Art
