C# Naming Conventions

Based on Microsoft documentation Capitalization Conventions & Hr Rony Article on C# Corner

Object Name	Notation	Example
Namespace	PascalCase	namespace System.Security { ... }
Class	PascalCase	public class StreamReader { ... }
Constructor	PascalCase	public class Person { public Person(string lastName, string firstName) { ... }}
Interface	PascalCase	public interface IEnumerable { ... }
Method	PascalCase	public class Object { public virtual string ToString(); }
Constants	PascalCase	public const int Months = 12;
struct	PascalCase	public struct Coords { ... }
Property	PascalCase	public string Name { get => name; }
Event	PascalCase	public class Process { public event EventHandler Exited; }
Delegate	PascalCase	public delegate void ProcessBookDelegate(Book book);
Enum value	PascalCase	public enum FileMode { Alpha, Beta, Gamma }
Public Field	PascalCase	public string Day;
Private Field	camelCase	private DateTime date;
Parameter	camelCase	public static class Convert { public static int ToInt32(string value); }
Local variable	camelCase	public class Object { public Do() { int index = 0; } }

Basically use PascalCase everywhere except for parameters, local variable and Private Field.

Private Field is subject to many interpretations but I find this solution elegant and it works well with the Visual Studio encapsulation helper so I adopted it

What about Var ?

I am also not inclined to use var outside LINQ and anonymous types

'var' should not be used in simple declarations, as shown below:
