Aren't you not mapping the entity and the table name somewhere?

In Code First Approach we can do this:

modelBuilder.Entity<Abc>().ToTable("t_Abc");

a. Is it not possible to override "OnModelCreating" in Database First, and map the entity and table as mentioned in the above code.

b. In Database First Approach, I haven't tried this; Let me know if this helps you.
