We have used the following naming standards for at least 9 years and
students always seem to like it. It also helps in keeping everything
standardized. It makes working on files as well as using them much easier -
especially if you have multiple people working on a book at the same time..

Front matter is labeled as 00, followed by a sectioning number (if there
are multiple front matter sections) and FM
Front matter sections are also identified with a brief desc such as TOC for
Table of Contents.
After the front matter, chapters are named with the number first.
End matter is numbered whatever number follows the last chapter along with
the designation EM.
End matter sections are also identified with a brief description such as
App A for appendix A, glossary, index, etc.

01_ch_Book Name_Edition...
14_ch_Book Name_Edition
15_EM_Index_Book Name_edition
