I think we should remove MTN prefixes from names. Usually we have a string with the token symbol, which should also get set appropriately.

I have already changed the symbol from "MTN" to "MET". I believe that is the only thing that gets noticed by exchanges. We can also refactor any contract variables and function names to also reflect, but that would be more for stylistic preference and consistency.
@filcap Mostly agree - it's a bit more than just consistency - we are going through the process of making sure the O.M. API docs are up to date, and there are public functions and symbols containing the older ticker 'MTN' string. This has already raised questions internally, resulting in this issue :)
It is certainly a 100% cosmetic change, not a functional change, but it is ABI-visible and needs cleanup before launch.
My recommendation is simply to remove the 'MTN' substring from variable and function names, and not search-and-replace the substring with the new ticker, but I leave that final stylistic choice up to you & the folks.
We'll submit a PR, @patidarmanoj10 , is working on this
@filcap , @jgarzik I have sent PR for this item.
PR #20 has been merged.
