Variable names / dev woes


it's little things in development trip most.  i've got tracked robot (more on come) , has lights in front can call headlights.  has arm camera , gimble , stuff on top called "head".  , on head of robot there light called headlight, though different definition other headlights.

and therein lies conundrum.  2 pieces of code developed separately , must come together.  both have thing best referred headlight , both pieces of code have chosen name, headlightpin, headlightstate, headlightontime, etc, etc.  1 gets refactored before combined.  easy enough find , replace. 

but 1 loses name?  away headlights , headlight, might end having post code on forum 1 day , pauls see , i'd have change before anyway.  i'd rather nip in bud , avoid doing stupid things begin with. 

so, wins?  headlights?  or light on head?  has better name 1 of things?

what headlamp light on robot's head?

or drivinglights "headlights" on main body?
or mainlights?


avoid @pauls's wrath @ costs :)
