I use only names provided by schematics. Using something different IMO
makes no sense and confusing.

i use 8 entry per line to keep counting easier. If line is too wide, i
wrap it with changed indentation.

Only names used by schematic :) If we will use something different users
will hate us even more.

I can image to use some kind of combination of connector name and pin
name. For example: "JP1-RXD0", or some thing like this.
