Schemes

I could identify the following distinct naming schemes:

Name Example Template
result-noun chunks This function returns its argument(s) as/in (a) _____
This function returns the _____ of its argument(s)
The function's return value is a _____ of its argument
result-adjective chunked This function's return value is its argument(s) but _____
This function's return value is _____ compared to its argument(s)
verb chunk / chunkify This function's goal is to _____ its argument(s)
verb-noun chunker This function is a(n) _____
preposition+noun/adj. byChunk / asChunks This function's return value presents the argument _____

Existing names

Here are some lazy functions in Phobos which operate on (take and return) ranges, their existing names (in bold), and what their name might look like in the above naming schemes. Names already in use by other parts in Phobos are struck out.

Feel free to edit this table if you have any brilliant ideas, but just to clarify - these are informative, and no renaming of existing, established names is being considered.
