As long as you do not use 1 4 version  you can use explicit annotation   example    Query  select count e  from Product e where e area code    1   long countByAreaCode String code

I have only been working with it for a few weeks but I don t believe that this is strictly possible however you should be able to get the same effect with a little more effort  just write the query yourself and annotate the method name   It s probably not much simpler than writing the method yourself but it is cleaner in my opinion   Edit  it is now possible according to DATAJPA-231

JpaRepository also extends QueryByExampleExecutor  So you don t even need to define custom methods on your interface   public interface UserRepository extends JpaRepository lt User  Long gt           no need of custom method     And then query like   User probe   new User    u setName    John   long count   repo count Example of probe

As of Spring Data 1 7 1 RELEASE you can do it with two different ways   The new way  using query derivation for both count and delete queries  Read this   Example 5   Example       public interface UserRepository extends CrudRepository lt User  Integer gt            long countByName String name           The old way  Using  Query annotation  Example       public interface UserRepository extends CrudRepository lt User  Integer gt             Query  quot SELECT COUNT u  FROM User u WHERE u name  1 quot           long aMethodNameOrSomething String name          or using  Param annotation also  public interface UserRepository extends CrudRepository lt User  Integer gt         Query  quot SELECT COUNT u  FROM User u WHERE u name  name quot       long aMethodNameOrSomething  Param  quot name quot   String name      Check also this so answer
