Well, I'm not really more experienced, but I just name parameters something like theData, newData or inData. "newData" is what Apple's accessor-writing script usually gives me.

From: http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/ CodingGuidelines/Articles/NamingMethods.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/ 20001282/BCIBJEFG

Traditionally (in Cocoa), the following keywords and arguments are used together:

...action:(SEL)aSelector
...alignment:(int)mode
...atIndex:(int)index
...content:(NSRect)aRect
...doubleValue:(double)aDouble
...floatvalue:(float)aFloat
...font:(NSFont *)fontObj
...frame:(NSRect)frameRect
...intValue:(int)anInt
...keyEquivalent:(NSString *)charCode
...length:(int)numBytes
...point:(NSPoint)aPoint
...stringValue:(NSString *)aString
...tag:(int)anInt
...target:(id)anObject
...title:(NSString *)aString
