I'm just finalizing the material for my http://Scala.one Advanced Type Mechanics course, but all my examples use "foo", "bar" and "baz" and I want to use some less clichéd terms... What alternatives would you suggest? I'll give you credit if this ever makes it into a book!

Why not use real world examples ? People tend to relate more easily if it’s a familiar entity name ..
My reasoning is that many of the examples are very low-level and almost purely syntactic, and I don't want to distract by making them seem real... though I do have real examples too!

I often struggle with this when developing courses. Real world examples seem good, but the domain of the examples needs to be generic enough so that a mixed audience can understand them, and often ends up being unrealistically simplified...
