 * My WP-Contents folder containers files that have been renamed like this:
 * _amajcxpkpdgbujxcrubp_b
    _cauckqdedjogllktycgi_b
 * ..etc, and so on..
 *  Did the web site developer do this because he created a “custom” theme? or have
   i been hacked somehow? Thanks for your help.

 * You can ask the developer, but I would go on the assumption something is not 
   right.
 * I would start working your way through these resources:
