"Service" or "Repository" -- Naming is hard!

Many apps talk to external data sources via some kind of "Data Layer." Some folks call these Data Layer objects "Repositories," while others call these same type of objects "Services."

Which makes the most sense or feels the most universal?

- Service
- Repository

This issue is a discussion about whether the template's data-layer objects should be called “Service” or “Repository.” No file, test, or entry point is identified. Read the existing template structure and the 23-comment discussion first; done requires a decided naming convention and an explicitly identified follow-up change.
