The ambiguity isn't in the name on its own "God is nowhere". It is in the combination of that name, and a bad naming convention.

If you had a naming convention which prohibits vowels, then the identifier "shrt" is ambiguous because it could be "short" or "shirt". That doesn't mean that "short" is a bad name for an identifier.
