I have some classes that are composed with ORM generated Models.

For example the Report.php (Model) is using a Document.php Model generated with ORM. Based on the document object a report is created.

I would like to know some name suggestions for the Report.php folder path. It clearly belongs to the /Model folder but in what subfolder?

I wish to find a clear path name for this kind of Models( Models that use composed Models). Any suggestions ?

/Models/[SUGGESTION]

ORMs are working with Entites, which are basically the instances of the model classes (in your case Document.php), so calling your folder Entities would be logical.

To get a proper definition of Entity, dive into the documentation of the ORM you are using. (Here is an example from the documentation of Doctrine.)
