So Which Should I Use: Singular or Plural? The correct answer is that there is no right or wrong when naming database tables — just be consistent from the start. The only wrong answer with database table names is to use a combination of plural and singular.
I'm using CodeFirst of EF with a well defined Database. My Database has a table named 'Centros' (Portuguese word) and I manage to find that EF tries to pluralize my entities to get a 'Centroes' witch is wrong in this case.
If I remove the pluralization modelBuilder.Conventions.Remove<PluralizingTableNameConvention>(); i manage to get it to work BUT I have to rename my table to 'Centro' (to match my entity name).
In Portuguese 'Centro' is singular, 'Centros' is plural.
I don't want to rename my table names so how can I specify the matching table name for my entity after a remove the pluralization convention?
