Repeated Group related database table has an odd name

Hi,

I created list called "staff profile" which has a repeated group for education. All seems fine in the UI but problem comes when a linked table is created for the repeated group. The main list table is named "hrm_staff_profile" as defined but the repeated group table has an odd name "hrm_staff_profile_6_repeat". The "hrm_staff_profile_" part is fine but:

(1) why does it create an extended name "6_repeat" (see screen cap)?
(2) How can i change this behavior where i can define my own extended name?

I dont know if this question has been asked before. I need help.

Thank you.

Fabrik create this table on the fly for you.
If you want you can create your own list with elements, then link it to another list.
 
(1) I would ask why not, as this is the repeated group table with an id of 6, so seems more than logical.
(2) Like startpoint said, you can create a separate list with the desired name and then join it to the main list as repeatable. But I cannot see any reason why make it so complicated.
 
We are in need of some funding.
More details.

Thank you.
