Claytons Domain Models

"The drink you have when you're not having a drink". That was the slogan in the advertising campaign many years ago for a non-alcoholic beverage called Claytons. I don't know about the rest of the English speaking world, but the word Claytons has become part of the language here in Australia.

I notice Martin Fowler has just written about what he calls anemic domain models; models that at first glance look like domain models but at closer inspection are devoid of behaviour.

I'll call them Claytons Domain Models.
