There is no standard naming convention for adobe form fields. You can give a field any name you want but you should remember the name when writing JavaScripts for the field.

This also applies to JavaScript variables.

You can save time by using the duplicate field feature which can auto name fields (field.0, field.1, field.2 and etc) for you.
