Whenever I do this things, I name my objects sequentially, as you said, and I also use the "shp" convention, similar to yours, then my shapes, or any other object, would be
shp000000001
shp000000002
shp000000003
cbo000000001
cbo000000002
cbo000000003
line000000001
line000000002
line000000003 etc
Oh, and I never use AddObject but NewObject in this cases.
