Topic naming convention and common message envelope

Hi, I plan to use Kafka for event-based integration between services. And I have two questions that bother me a lot:

1) What topic naming convention do you use?

2) Do you wrap your messages in some kind of envelope that contains metadata like originating system info, timestamp, event type, unique event identifier, etc? 

Thanks,
Denis.
