Function naming rules in Python

1. Use of Lowercase Letters and Underline (Snake Case)
Function names are written in lowercase letters and an underscore (_) is placed between the words.

2. Meaningful and Descriptive Names
Function names should clearly state what the function does.

3. Verb Usage
Function names often begin with a verb to indicate an action.

4. Avoid Abbreviations
Don't use abbreviations unless it's a well-known term or technology.

Great. I especially agree with the last rule to avoid abbreviations.
We should go ahead using full word as well I think. Thanks.
