I'm reinstalling my laptop and I don't know how to name it.
Before the naming scheme was icecream flavours:
Chocolate, Vanilla (workstations), Strawberry, Cherry (Thinkpads), Stracciatella, Tropicana (servers)
For a while I contemplated weaponary: Katana, Kodachi, Tanto - here I'd run out of names quickly and more recent (WW2) weaponary wouldn't fit.
At work we name servers after deities and recently volcanos, animals, users pretty much call their computer whatever they want. Recently we started using fantasy name generator.
I also thought LOTR (some insurancy company also names their servers after LOTR).
I'd like to distinguish between servers, laptops, cell phones, workstations but the scheme would have to fit.
So how do you guys name them?
