Strange question maybe, but are there any author or mod that uses the prefix Z or H ?

You mean as the first letter of their name, or clearly seperate from the rest of their name like Z-Foo?
Because in the first case... yes. Tons for both Z and H. In the second case, no but there are a number of pk3 files with Z as a prefix. Several OSP paks and a ctf map pack called z-ctfspack. There are others too.

hs3dm1, etc... find something you like, then search for it on lvl... if someone else has it, 99% chance you'll find it on lvl.

"hs" is not specific enough imo (no, I don't say that just because it could be confused with my nickname :icon32: ).
If I were you I'd just name them hipshotdm1 or maybe hipshotq3dm1, and so forth.
my 2 öre.

I'd just use "hip3dm1".

Agreed! Looks best, sounds best

"hip" something has a ring to it for a reason... there are several maps by hipnotic using that prefix for commercial maps (drat, can't remember for what game, Heretic II or something). And those maps were called hipdm1, hipdm2, etc. IIRC.
In your case hipshotxxx would probably be best, though it is obviously not as neat as some 2-3 letter abbreviation.
You could try "map-hiXXX" though...
Boy am I lucky that "ae" works just great and is rare enough

Hrm, yea that nick is damn sweet, too bad its taken, its really unique...
I know that about hipnotic, were't there some Quake levels they did? (A quick google brought up QW maps and Q2 conversions of maps called HipDMx :/)
Well well... I'll figure something out...
