A customer I used to visit used starwars and startrek names for their hosts, which thoroughly confused visitors!

I use a similar theme:
PC 1: Deepthought
PC 2: Ford (used to be Ford Prefect, but dropped the second word on the third iteration)
Server: Zaphod
Laptop: Arthur (as in Dent, Arthur Dent)
Weather Server: Slartibartfast
Media PC: Marvin

Usually girl's names, like they do on the Youtube channel "Is it a good idea to microwave this?" LOL

You may have had more humorous answers if you posted this in General Discussion :-D

At my uni we have in the main lab each computer name is after a country. In the other lab every computer is named after a pokemon. It's strange doing your dissertation on a computer called "Charmeleon"

My PC though is just called "The beast", but on networks is simply listed as "unknown".
