I have 2 tables: Users and Roles, and I have a table that joins these together. The only thing in the join table is Ids that link the 2 tables.

What should I call this table? I've never really seen a good naming convention for this.

Conventions I've seen before:

  • UsersToRolesJoin
  • UsersToRolesLink
  • UsersToRolesMembership
  • UsersRoles

Ex:

Users:  
Id  
Name

Roles:  
Id  
Name  

TableThatJoinsTheTwo:  
Id  
UserId  
RoleId

It seems like the mapping table is storing all the roles that each user is a member of. If this is correct I would call the table UserRoles.

This correctly (IMO) pluralizes the intent of the table rather than UsersRoles which just sounds odd.
