Spring Integration Channel naming convention

My question is simple, is there any known convention for naming channels in Spring Integration (or more generally in Enterprise Integration Patterns)?

Thanks.

I would say the informal convention is to use a channel as a suffix, but there is indeed no any requirements.

In case of Spring this channel name really becomes a bean name, so you could filter beans by some common suffix/prefix. However at the same time all the channel beans are instances of the MessageChannel... At the same time no one stops you to use the same prefix/suffix in other places...

We also have a convention to name channels for input with an input key word. Same for output. Or request/reply...

So, everything is flexible and is not tied to some strong naming requirements.
