All programming: Name the function something that etc etc.
Lisp: We don't name formal parameters the assembly language or
C style ... give them short, but if possible complete names
that are easy to read and write. When in doubt, give them
a complete name that communicates what its purpose or
intended use.

Doc string should have the formal parameter's names in BOLD in
the order they come in the the function definition ...

Assign the formal parameters with argument values
(interactive "ndepth: \nntop: \nnrepeat: ")
^ eval me
Use English in the prompt string, if the words feel to long
see if they can be shortened in a natural way (here, e.g. dep,
top, and rep) - the reason one avoids "max" is it also appears
in as the function `max' ...

If there is no computation, renaming it ... why do you
do that?
You use it like this:
(let*((side 2)
(square (expt side 2) )) ...
;; use square here
)
