I like lint and I like var names that mean something to humans unless  
humans don't need to use them.

I also am not a fan of the plural form.

In my applications I would probably use "recommendation"

Let the app add the "s".

foreach (something as thing) add recommendation[thing].

user table vs users table.

What variant or you talking about vs what variants are you talking  
about.

It's a variant not a variants.

It's a recommendation not a recommendations.

usersnames
groupsnames

And I will be so totally happy with any var that works so I'll shut up  
now.

And I have had some wine;)
