Design system naming guide on a computer screen

Figma Community offers the “Name Components Properties and Values in Design Systems” Moodboard, a visual guide to creating a taxonomy for naming design system components, properties, and values. The resource provides a step-by-step approach for building a structured glossary, enabling consistency and clarity in design systems. It focuses on unifying grammar and naming conventions across design assets, streamlining collaboration between designers and developers.

This tool is particularly useful for design teams working on complex systems where clear naming conventions are essential. By providing a framework to standardize terminology, it enhances communication and organization in collaborative projects. Designers can refer to the full accompanying article, available in English and Spanish, for an in-depth explanation of the taxonomy-building process.
