OpenOffice.org has the best naming conventions (although not 100%). The name of the suite tells you what it is (office software), followed by:
* writer - for, erm, writing * calc - for calculations - a spreadsheet * draw - guess<nobr> <wbr></nobr>:) * impress - only dubious one, presentation software * base - database
Unfortunately, almost every single person I know in the entire world (except me, because I hate it) thinks that the things OpenOffice.org Impress creates are 'powerpoints'. Gah!
