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)
Basically all mine are from this list (or similar) Star Wars planet list
I don’t name my servers anything special, but I do name my various Zigbee sensors in Home Assistant after Egyptian gods. Atum-Ra, Tefnut, Shu, etc. I’ve avoided the ones that also coincide with Stargate gods, as I thought that would be too exciting for me.
Delta, Epsilon, Beta, rpi01, rpi02…
Travolta, Stallone, Dr.Jacoby, BlackMamba
i use…colors…
the servers in my and my friends’ network are called Red, Blue, Green, Orange, Heracles, and hp_elitedesk (don’t ask about those last two
I do come up with fancy names for my laptops though, usually some combination of the model of the laptop and the OS it’s running. Void Linux + Thinkpad = “voidpad” was pretty straightforward, but when my next machine was an Alienware running Arch I was a bit stuck. After a bit of thought I remembered that one episode of Star Trek with the Guardian of Forever and named it “guardianoffornow”
