Python Naming Convention > Class Naming

PascalCase

• Begin with an uppercase letter
• Preferably a noun e.g. Car, Bird, MountainBike
• Avoid acronyms and abbreviations

class Car:
    ...

Private Class

Python does not support privacy directly. This naming convention is used as a weak internal use indicator.

• Should follow the above naming conventions
• Should use a leading underscore (_) to distinguish between "public" and "private" classes
• For more read the official python documentation.

class _Car: # private class
