At the risk of contradicting Richard's advice and useful style guide on his
site, you might try prepending your object names with an underscore (ie
field _name).  I use this technique in my scripts and this prevents any
confusion with reserved words.  Some folks have complained that use of the
underscore prevents you from selecting the entire name by doubleclicking in
the script editor, but I find this to be a minor inconvenience (especially
since you don't need to change the underscore itself when editing the name,
for example).
