I am learning ASP.NET MVC and I like it. However, I am very confused about the right approach to namespacing my models. While dissecting the NerdDinner sample app I noticed that everything in the Models folder belongs to the Models namespace.

Imagine this case: A color has an id. Easy enough. The same color can, depending on the user's language pref, search query and personal preference have a different display name. This display name is not defining, but it needs to be passed on to each page so the user is confronted with the same label every time the color is mentioned. Fu...
