The corresponding function in Oracle is called wm_concat. In MySQL its 
called group_concat. I don't believe DB2 or SQL Server have built in 
equivalents. The Oracle name isn't really an option ("wm' stands for 
workspace manager)

I think listagg or string_agg would be the most appropriate names. Oh 
and before Oracle had wm_concat, Tom Kyte wrote a function called stragg 
that was pretty popular.
