Hi Badhri, did you ever get any feedback to your question? What did you decide after all?

As far as I have worked with Cognos consultants, there is none. It is up to you to adopt one.

I will second oimFriendly's point, it is more up the client (yourself) what you would like to name things. However I would propose to stay away from crazy characters in the names (but that is more for programming/automation purposes, and sometimes there are problems with the server applications if your objects have wierd names). Ex- using any of the characters that fall above the number keys, "+", quotes, etc.
