The name of the collection

Hey, I just found it strange that nowhere in the code we declared 'user' in plural, i.e. 'users'. Still the name of the collection in MongoDB is 'users'. Curious how it happened to become plural? Is it Mongo itself taking the name of the schema and adding 's' in the end?

Thanks in advance. I'm sure I will find it out later, however it is soo curious.
