My main server is named Postulate (an idea that you assume for the sake of argument), my desktop is named Axiom (a proved postulate), and my backup server is named Corollary (an idea that follows from an axiom).
A five character name in the form of CVCVC that doesn’t show up as a common English word. The main reason is that I want my colmena and host names to be nicely lined up, there is a lot of space in there, and it happens to be the pattern of a race of telepaths in my fantasty world where telepathy is loosely based off of IPv6 addresses and REST and remote RPC calls.
Previously, my computer names were based on Lojban gismu based on their use, so names like fraxu (forgive), briju (office), etc.
On the other hand, my dad’s computer names are: bob, bob2, bob3, bob4, bob5, bob6, bob7, bob8, steve, bob9, bob10, bob11, bob12, bob13, bob14, bob15, and bob16.
My mother’s company were all named off of international currencies (we were doing a stock trading project), so dollar, mark, franc, pound, euro, etc.
My other dad’s computers are named after logical constructs: axiom, theory, etc. He was a scientist.
