My earliest programming experience taught me to use Systems Hungarian with scope. So, something like lcName for local character name.

On one of my first jobs all the class names were prefixed with C, but it wasn't carried through to variables or anything. I said we should stop prefixing class names with C and got shouted down. That's where I learned to mostly just do what I want without asking. Once you have 5k lines of something your way it is really too late for anyone to ask you to change it :)
