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).
All ~60,000 servers are given 32-bit UUID’s, plus a 3 word CNAME from 3 unique and distinct lists of nouns. i.e. a server would have an A record of 1b30fafd-0a28-4999-b51f-bfa2b8af68e5 and a CNAME of tiger-ball-hill. A few servers that I often SSH into will be given friendly cnames like “bastion1” or “ansible” or something like that.
