We've generally done pretty well to keep the naming consistent and I'd like to hold on to that consistency for as long as possible (especially since the function names begin efi_*). And yes, I realise that no one (apart from perhaps Apple) ships with EFI anymore and it's all UEFI, but we've kinda developed our own naming scheme at this point.
