Usually we should use the names in the Common Lisp standard as the

Yes.
Strangely, Common Lisp has char-int (and also char-code, which would
be equivalent), but no int-char. Maybe that's a hint to us.
:-)
But Common Lisp's char concept is evil in its own way. I believe
Common Lisp allows various modifiers to be encoded in the character
itself. Yuck.
