I’ve ended up with a number of machines on my network, and a need to name them all in a somewhat logical way. For several years I had them named after the planets, which worked well until the PCs for myself, my girlfriend, servers and Raspberry Pi’s quickly summed up to more than the eight planets. I’ve broadened it somewhat to include any Greek/Roman mythological figure, but the system is definitely not as clean as it used to be.
Do you have a coordinated naming theme for your machines?
Gravity falls characters: Mabel, Dipper, Soos, Wendy, etc…
Do you match the service with the characters personality?
That’s a TODO, atm they’re names that reflect their role. So my reverse proxy is “roundabout” because it directs traffic internally
