It has to exactly match the namespace, so making the namespace singular means a singular for the folder.
I use singular, and I think that’s common. After all, the path to the model is about one model, not the collection. Plural is used in Rails for a collection, like an array variable or a database table name. Controllers use plural, I think because of the REST convention. Everything else is singular.
