<section id="new-naming">
<h2 class="page-header">New Naming Conventions in {{ site.fontawesome.minor_version }}</h2>
<p class="lead text-center alert alert-success">fa-[name]-[shape]-[o]-[direction]</p>
<p>
A desire for better icon naming <strong>consistency</strong> and <strong>predictability</strong> are at the heart
of the changes in naming conventions. Once you know the name of the base icon shape, you should be able to predict
the names of variants.
