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).
having read all these other comments, i’m now feeling like i should come up with a more creative naming scheme… for what it’s worth, my phone is named bob.
Lazarus: My desktop PC that randomly died one day and would only work again after literally every component was replaced.
Akamas: My Fairphone 4, named after the son of Theseus, which was my Fairphone 3.
I mean, yeah, given how I replaced everything. However, my Fairphone 3 (which, in case you don't know, is designed to have all components replacable) was already Theseus at that time, so I went for the 'resurrection' theme instead
Albatross and Nautilus. Not really sure why, just like the sound of the words and the nautical theme. I still have 2 or 3 laying around unnamed because I haven't thought of any good words that fit the theme
Mine are all named after mythological creatures. It started with my tower being named Cerberus because it had 3 red LED fans and then just kept up from there. Hydra, Thoth, manticore, chimera. I'm deploying Baba Yaga this week, and Ratatoskr will be up eventually
