I don't name my server names, 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.

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"

My mobile devices are named after space ships from sci-fi shows and the like:

  • Rocinante
  • Donnager
  • Normandy

Dang. Mine are named after ancient Gods, so my first Server was named Neptune too.

I have to admit I was doing the same but with the greek versions. Though I liked to throw in hydra's and the like.

I use Roman deities. My recent Beelink purchase received the name Mellona. I thought it was fitting. Others have no relevance, just random, like Pluto, Juno, Jupiter, Neptune... double fun for them being space objects as well.

My server is called Mars, and the two clients I have are Phobos and Deimos (the moons of Mars). I though that's a good fit.

Rabble. It's themed with my other devices, Pibble, Pabble, and Ribble.

  • My self-hosted docker server is called Ark.
  • My NAS is called NAS.
  • The two remote servers are simply called the name of the country they reside in.
  • The OPNsense router is called, wait for it, Router.
  • The TV client is called TV.

It’s not very colourful :)

I use Harry potter characters mostly for wife approval points.

Pi based one was called Dobby runs home assistant and is small

First one was called Fawkes because it was a reused laptop and was hot

Current one is buckbeak because it's fast and like Fawkes came back from dead systems

I have a threadripper at work to come so I'll have to think of what that one will be.

Only two I've thought through naming are

Roshar - Unraid server where 90% of apps/services live.

Cobalt Guard - Ubiquiti UDMPro

Maybe Knight Radiant or a character who is one, or even one of the orders would have fit better for protecting roshar but I like how cobalt guard sounds for a FW
