Well, I was commenting more on the use of syntactic elements and emoji 
within the name.

I use letters (e.g. ChorusA, ChorusB) and Roman numerals (e.g. StanzaI, 
StanzaII) when naming variables, to avoid the need to use actual numbers 
that could be confused for durations.  So far, it seems to work well.

That said, I have considered switching to quoted names in a few special 
cases, since "Psalm 146" renders better than PsalmCXLVI.
