      <p>When writing code, it's common to suffix the class name with the type of class it is.</p>

      <p>I do this often for most types of classes, such as Controllers, EventListeners, Factories, Repositories and Builders.</p>

      <p>However, I don't always for value objects and data transfer objects (DTOs).</p>

      <p>Also, I don't always suffix interfaces with <code>Interface</code>.</p>

      <p>I've been re-reading the documentation for the Symfony Serializer component, which references both <code>NameConverterInterface</code> and <code>MyDto::class</code>.</p>

      <p>Whilst it does make the names more verbose, it does clarify what the class is used for.</p>

      <p>Symfony's coding standards and Drupal's PHP coding standards have conventions for this, but what do you think?</p>

      <p>Do you add suffixes to your class or interface names, or do you prefer the simplified versions?</p>
