I'm having quite a bit if trouble finding a straight answer on how one should properly denote the set of all even and all naturals respectively. What is the standard, universally understood way to signify these?

Natural Numbers are denoted $\mathbb{N}$.

Even Numbers are denoted $2\mathbb{N}$.

Usually if $n\in \mathbb N$ , $\space n\mathbb N=\{\alpha\equiv 0\space mod (n) |\alpha \in \mathbb N\}$. So $2\mathbb N$ is the set of all even numbers.(Positive obviously).
