• nameWithoutExt: Name without an extension (Ex: my-class.cpp would become my-class)
• nameWithoutPrefix: Name without prefix (param-case by default)
• nameWithoutSuffix: Name without suffix (param-case by default)

You can also use the following variants for each var

• varParam: The variable var param cased (some-name)
• varCamel: The variable var camel cased (someName)
• varPascal: The variable var pascal cased (SomeName)
• varSnake: The variable var snake cased (some_name)
• varConstant: The variable var snake cased (SOME_NAME)
• varDot: The variable var snake cased (some.name)
