Rules for naming intermediate tables?

Question

Database design

If, for example, I need to link racers ( racers ) and cars ( cars ) that drive them, I have 4 options for how to name the intermediate table:
1. racers_cars
2. racer_car
3. cars_racers
4. car_racer
Somewhere I heard which is alphabetical. For example, cars comes alphabetically before racers, so cars_racers. But I don’t know how correct this approach is + I don’t understand, you need to use the singular form (car) or plural (cars)
