you should not use dbcontext directly (that not make sense) in entity framework. instead use own custom context - class inherited dbcontext holds sets specific application. when use database first approach custom entity class generated based on edmx file data, in turn generated based on database schema.

regarding naming... not obvious custom context generated, have same name connection string name when creating edmx file:

actually default name entity container of conceptual entity model. if open edmx file in designer , take on properties, see:

if change name, context re-generated name have provided.
