Yes. I had an application that had to interact through REST services with a second application. Three specific variables needed to be passed back and forth. Unfortunately, they were given entirely different names in the different systems so I ended up with:
I'd probably find that annoying in a code base. This is what the idea of a Bounded Context (See [1]) in DDD solves. Within your application's bounded context, call it whatever makes sense to your application, with an anti corruption layer to translate between the two.
