IIRC "enb" would > follow conventions used elsewhere in the manual. Naming is hard ;-) The docs for mpn_sec_invert use nbcnt (I guess that's your choice). Docs for mpf_urandomb use nbits. Other mp_bitcnt_t arguments in the manual give little guidance, names like n, op, starting_bit, bit_index, prec, bit, m2exp. So "enb" here is as good as any. Some variance is surely motivated depending on semantics, but I'mafrad that there is a lot of variance which is not motivated. An analysis of variable names used in the manual, following by a naming cleanup, that would be good.
