Does anyone have any good and unique naming conventions?

It seems like everywhere I've worked, and everywhere I will probably ever work, has a server named "zeus". Surely not everyone is that dull?

I finally came up with a (what I think is good) naming convention for my personal boxen.

If you're having trouble understanding it, they're all 1-word 311 songs. :)

Anyone else have any ideas once these are gone?

For "DC1" we use astronomy related names, examples include:
- jupiter
- saturn
- mars
- earth
- venus
- mercury
- milkyway
- andromeda
etc (not a name).

For "DC2" we name things after mathematicians and philosophers, examples include:
- descartes
- newton
- nash
etc (not a name)
