I'm not aware of any standard convention for Transform Frame names. The frame names are simple strings, with no concept of hierarchy. You can use "/" character if you like, but it will have no special meaning. It is best to avoid using a "/" as the first character, as internally the ros code strips it off for historical reasons.
Use whatever convention you think looks best.

Note: that there is a parameter named tf_prefix
, but it is deprecated. Do not assume this feature works at all.
