The rule

A good name for a problem helps a person understand their feelings.

The name should be clear. It should describe the main conflict or feeling.

A developer should name a problem directly. The name should describe the core feeling. It helps the user recognize their own experience. This makes the user feel seen and understood. A good name can also explain a complex emotion simply.

A developer creates an AI tool for new managers. The AI identifies a common problem: a manager feels torn between being a friend and being a boss. The developer names this 'The Loyalty Bind'. A manager using the tool immediately understands this feeling. The manager feels the AI understands their difficult situation.
