Listnavn

Listnavn is a generic term used in documentation, data models, and sample code to denote the name assigned to a list or collection of items. It is not a formal standard term in mainstream programming languages; rather, it commonly appears as a placeholder or example identifier in multilingual or pedagogical materials, particularly in contexts where “list” and “name” are combined for clarity.

In practical usage, a field, variable, or property named listnavn may store the human‑readable label of the list, while the actual items are held in a separate structure. For example, in JSON: { "listnavn": "Shopping items", "items": ["milk", "bread"] }. In code: const listnavn = "Shopping items"; const items = ["milk", "bread"];

Naming and style: when integrating list labels into software, adopt consistent naming conventions. If the codebase uses camelCase, a more idiomatic form is listName; in snake_case environments, list_name is preferred. The key is to keep listnavn as a clear, descriptive label for end users, and to document its meaning to avoid ambiguity across locales and systems.
