Why GOOG_L?

I found that when my program loads some external csv file it cannot recognize symbol GOOGL. Instead GOOG_L should be used.

What does the underscore do? Why not just use GOOGL? Is the underscore version a more formal name? It seems most of the finance website (like Yahoo) are using the name GOOGL.
