I'm writing software, and I need to create an object that will contain a group of contacts. Contacts can belong to more than one group.

If I wanted to shorten "group of contacts," would I refer to it as a contacts group, or a contact group?

Per the FAQ: "But please, don’t ask any questions about these topics. They are out of scope for this site. . . . * How to name this function/variable in my program." – zpletan Apr 30 '12 at 18:11
@zpletan Alright, I get it. But forgetting about the program, I still have the grammar doubt: should the noun to be grouped be plural or singular? – Pablo Venturino Apr 30 '12 at 18:13
See the linked question. Also related: “BookList” or “booksList”, “lesson count” or “lessons count”, and lots of others. The answer is always the same. – RegDwigнt Apr 30 '12 at 18:23
