Yeah ... what will5404 said.

I've been in the IT biz for 20+ years. Old school IT types like Trekkie or astronomy names ... I would be a rich man if I get a penny for every system named "Jupiter" or "Saturn". I like seafaring names, especially ones from tugs and seaway vessels (i.e. no "slippery when wet" .

Bottom line, be original, use any name you want, as long as it is original and doesn't embarrass you
