Are there any naming conventions for self-referential, many-to-many relationship tables?

Let’s say we have a table called Users for a fictional social media platform. In addition to regular users, some more experienced users are asked to be “greeters” where they are assigned other, newer users to greet and encourage. Because greeters aren’t always available, multiple greeters are assigned to each new user and each greeter is assigned multiple new users.
