I don't find this in Haskell.  The names of types and of data
constructors begin with upper-case letters, and the names of ordinary
variables begin with lower-case letters.  So you could have

   string = "hello"

and that is separate from the type String.  That might not be great
style but the language lets you tell the two apart.
