Exceptions are loop counters, I always start with a lower case i, then j, and so on - hang over from many years of coding in Fortran. Pointers I call pSomething, hang over from an early database system I used whereby that was a requirement, and for some reason, I call handles hSomething.
Functions follow the same rule as variables.
With todays IDE's, Hungarian is a relic, if I have forgotten what type a variable is, I put my cursor on it and the IDE tells me and offers to take me to the declaration.
Often the software house you're working for has installation standards which dictate you must use so-and-so convention for naming.
