Computer Names, what do you think?

[Arsonist]

I've not named mine in case doing so will allow it to become self aware. We wouldn't want the human race to become extinct because of a machine called the 'Fap-tron2000'.

I remember a thread a while back where lot people said they named their computers Fun & interesting things couldn't find it after searching...

Would like some help with thinking one for mine?
I thought I would start this on my New PC Arriving Saturday

ASUS X99 WS-E

3x SSD (128GB Samsung's)
1x 3TB + other i can find
Super flower 1300w
Corsair Carbide 540

Got fed up of naming systems based on TV series to then run out of characters, so the network is now a Monopoly board.

NAS are Waterworks/ElectricComp
WIFI are GO/Free Parking/Just Visiting
Systems are named after properties
Stations are unallocated at the moment.

 

[xGBHxPegasus]

Mines just PegasusPC, PegasusL

VM's are named after Sonic characters (Sonic, Eggman, Tails etc)

Phone and tablet are just xGBHxPegasus

Rather boring

 

[Simian]

Call it 'Joshua'

"Shall We Play A Game?"

 

[porushinobu]

go with a classic
Call it ... "Hal"

When my sister lived with me whenever she wanted to use the PC she called it 'Buttons' Ie "Can I use Buttons please?"

So the theme began...

Buttons - iMac/Main PC
Little-B - HTPC
Black-B - NAS, and that's not racist, it's Black in colour
Mini-B - Macbook
