There's no reason why it can't be named "create..." and return a retained object,
My personal preference is to use Create... for naming functions which return alloc/malloc memory, inline with the CoreFoundation memory management rules. I tend to use -(id)new... for methods, again for the same reason.
This ensures that your functions and methods follow the established API grammar and increases readability.
