I think people cop-out if their computer name is XP-PRO or LAPTOP or LINUX. Here’s a few ideas I’ve gathered for naming schemes. Make sure you leave yours in the comments.

  • The Seven Deadly Sins (My current naming scheme)
    • lust
    • gluttony
    • greed
    • sloth
    • wrath
    • envy
    • pride (hubris)
  • Mythical Creatures
    • gryphon
    • dragon
    • hydra
    • unicorn
    • pegasus
    • gargoyle
    • chimera
    • sphinx
    • phoenix
    • cerberus
    • kraken
    • leviathan
    • wyvern
  • Happy Words (thanks Carey)
    • abandonment
    • isolation
    • hate
    • despair
    • revenge
  • Trees
    • juniper
    • maple
    • oak
    • cedar
    • pine

Update: I thought of one other one:

  • alpha
  • bravo
  • charlie
  • delta
  • etc…
