title: What is the correct term for labeling tables in a query?
body: <p>I'm trying to figure out the correct name for table labeling.</p>
  
  <pre><code>SELECT var1, var2 FROM myTable TableRef
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The label I'm referring to is the variable <strong>TableRef</strong>, which can be referenced from a WHERE clause like follows:</p>
  
  <pre><code>WHERE TableRef.var1 = 'someValue'
  </code></pre>
