[android-developers] Re: How can I best identify my App?

I don't have any problem with this. Just use the same name and adjust
it to the naming conventions for each place, for instance if you have
an app called "Foo Bar":

App name (android:label in manifest): Foo Bar
App name (Title in market): Foo Bar
Package: com.example.foobar or com.exemple.foo_bar (where com.example
is replaced by your own domain)
Project Name: foo-bar or FooBar
APK name: foobar.apk or foo_bar.apk

Version name should be something like "1.0" and not include the app
name or package name.
