I prefer "the Child's Father's Father's Name". I imagine typing the code out and saying in my head something like that... it's just easier for me to walk forward down that path than backward.

Of course, it is just a matter of personal preference. I can't think of any objective reason to pick one over the other. Perhaps it might be easier for people writing right-to-left languages to think of it in one way than the other.

Well, one (gentle) reason is that SMW already does relations from left-to-right.
