Recommendations on Naming Conventions for O365 Groups
What are others out there doing for their naming conventions on O365 Groups? Looking for recommendations, whats working well, what might not be necessary after you implemented it, etc.
Brent Ellis, do you hide O365 Groups from your GAL?
With adding a prefix to all groups, what happens to SharePoint sites that are created as O365 Group Connected? Do the sites assume the prefix too?

We don't hide ours from the GAL (at least havent had a need to yet)
We are replacing old Distribution Lists in AD (most of which have been out of date) with each group that gets created if it existed
For the SharePoint site, we add "group_groupnamehere" as the alias, so it's site becomes https://mytenant.sharepoint.com/sites/group_groupnamehere, and the email address is group_groupnamehere@company.com. But the display name is "GROUP - Group Name Here"
