Mimicing a thread I saw elsewhere.
I generally use this list to name my machines: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mythological_objects
For my main server I use loeding: a modified version of Lædingr, a chain forged by Thor to bind and were broken by Fenrir. (Norse Mythology)
Lastname-Server
I know, I’m boring. But at least my laptop and desktop have cool names:
Firstname-Laptop
Firstname-Desktop
Yeah, I have Featherserver for my server, Featherbeast for my laptop (named because it has decent specs), and Featherphone for my phone.
Forgot about the phone, you’ll never guess what I call that one…
When you have a lot of devices like my family, it just makes everything easier to give descriptive names like that.
