I guess I'm lucky with  abbreviated style sheet names. With the book publishers we work with, it's pretty standard. For example, many of the book publishers use:

CN – chapter number

CT – chapter title

PN – part number

PT – part title

FMH – frontmatter head

HT – half title

TX -text

TXF – text flush

EXT – extract

etc. etc.

To me it's great, and since I have to mark up the manuscript (and write the stylesheets), it's much easier to write “TX” in front of the paragraph than to write “body paragraph” or “body level” or something. And luckily this naming convention has been in place for years.

As an aside–we still mark up manuscript with quark tagging as we use XTags for Quark and ID.
