PROCESS
Specify the process we are producing.
Always using number if more than one same particle, and Arrange in alphabetical order
Using DYto2L instead of DYtoLL
Usng WtoLNu and WtoQQ to distinguish decay of W boson
Using TT instead of TTbar
Using TtoLNu and TbartoLNu to distinguish top and anti-top
Using WWto2L2Nu instead of WWtoLLNuNu (or WWto2Nu2L)
Using WWtoLNu2Q instead of WWtoLNuQQ
Merging information if it is not confusing
Using WZto3LNu instead of WZtoLNu2L
Using WWto4Q instead of WWto2Q2Q
BINNING
When producing binning samples, e.g., DY process with maximum 4jet in LHE level,
The inclusive process name: DYto2L-4Jets
the corresponding jet-binned sample, e.g., 1 jet at LHE-level: DYto2L-4Jets_1J
N.B.: check the hyphen and underscore in this case carefully!!
Other binning cases are trivial, e.g., DYto2L-4Jets_MLL-60to90, DYto2L-4Jets_HT-100to200 ...
bin e.g. "600toInf" should be "600" directly, i.e., no need to add "Inf"
FILTER
Some complicated cases:
DYto2L-4Jets_BEnriched: GEN filter requiring for b quarks from parton shower (maximum jet multiplicity is 4 in LHE level )
DYBto2LB-4Jets: LHE requiring one b quark in ME (e.g. p p > e+ e- b) (maximum jet multiplicity is 4 in LHE level )

If there are specialized decay tool used, please append this to the name, e.g. if EvtGen was used after Pythia8, use ...pythia8-evtgen, ...pythia8-tauola, ...pythia8-photos
When madspin is used, e.g., powheg-madspin-pythia8
