+=== Date and Time Columns Naming [[date-and-time-columns-naming]]
+
+Name `date` columns with `_on` suffixes.
+Name `datetime` columns with `_at` suffixes.
+Name `time` columns (referring to a time of day with no date) with `_time` suffixes.
+
+This enforces consistency and it is easier to tell the type from the name without referring to the database schema.
