Use an editor/IDE that allows for autocompletion. In VIM, for example, you can simply press CTRL-P to complete the word. Many IDEs have CTRL-Space or similar.
Those names you have cited aren't long. They are exactly the right length, and convey your meaning even to people that haven't read the code. That is a good thing. Too often I hear the advice that names should be long without the qualification that they should have the right amount of meaning. Being overspecific and writing novels worth of text each time is counterproductive. Being underspecific and having cryptic variable names people cannot understand is not helpful.
