Naming questions

I have two naming questions:
1. What is the difference between create and make ? For instance, I
adding docs now to my SQLite binding and when comparing to the docs in
other objects, I noticed sometimes the use of make other times the use
of create. I have one such slot that takes a sqlite3* pointer from C and
creates a new SQLITE object from it. Should this be named "create" or
"make" ? What is the rule in regards to these two names?
2. What is the rule as to when to use keywords vs. more descriptive slot
names? For instance:
- bind_string (col:INTEGER, value:ABSTRACT_STRING)
- bind_integer (col:INTEGER, value:INTEGER)
- bind_integer64 (col:INTEGER, value:INTEGER_64)
... etc
-- or --
- bind col:INTEGER to_string value:ABSTRACT_STRING
- bind col:INTEGER to_integer value:INTEGER
- bind col:INTEGER to_integer64 value:INTEGER_64
... etc
Thanks!
