Hi Ralph, I don't buy the noun vs. verb argument. What about IOException and SQLException? By that argument we'd have SQLingExcption and IOingException ;) There are plenty of <Product>Exception and <Component>Exception. IllegalStateException is another good one, it denotes state, not that you are doing something. Both verb and noun patterns are valid IMO.
