Names for targets in a macro

Hi,
I picked up this useful wee macro from a chap commenting on the
A Slippery Snack
quest:
/tar baby oc
/script SetRaidTarget("target", 8);
It targets a specific mob (in this case
Baby Octopus
) and flags it with a skull. It was very useful but I wondered about how to name other mobs to use it in the future for other similar quests. In the macro
Baby Octopus
is written simply as "baby oc" rather than it's full name. Are there any naming conventions I need to take into account when naming mobs in macros such as this?
Cheers .

the /target command doesnt need to be a full name, partial names work fine as long as there is no other unit in your range with the same word in its name.
/tar ba would work just as well.
or to be safer /tar baby
this is the same for any object/npc/player in game.

I agree. Old school, but still extremely racist.

I was kidding. Nobody should get offended by something so out of context.
