Azure - Naming convention for resources

What is the best way to name resources in Azure?

I have seen some people name their resources with prefixing the resource group. Example: grp-1-myfunctionapp. Others add resource type, region and environment like functionapp-westus-prod-fn1.

How should I go about it?

An effective naming convention assembles resource names by using important resource information as parts of a resource's name.A public IP resource for a production SharePoint workload is named like this: pip-sharepoint-prod-westus-001

Straight From Microsoft Docs👏. Scroll down a little bit and you will find a whole bunch of great prefix to orginize your names.

Please notice that changing resource names can be difficult. Establish a comprehensive naming convention before you begin any large cloud deployment.
