inputField is a "property" of the object/movieclip it was created in.
chat_input is the physical existance of the movieclip you're referencing
with inputField. It doesn't seem retarded to me. You *may* want that
separation for a reason some day down the line.
I personally name then the same thing when it's referenced localy (in the
same object):
var inputField:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("inputField",
this.getNextHighestDepth());
createEmptyMovieClip returns a MovieClip reference for you to use. Imagine
if you created that movieclip in some other timeline/MovieClip. With that
returned reference, you wouldn't really care where the movieclip lived, just
as long as you had a reference to it.
