I was thinking just the same thing. It's fascinating to see the
themes people choose for naming their boxes.
My spare machine is named "GARAGE" ... it doesn't sit in the
garage, has never even been IN a garage, but I used to work in a
location that was nicknamed "Garage Block Software" (grin), and
we got a Demon node name back in the Demon early(ish) days we
called it "garage.demon.co.uk" - later I took ownership of this
one,
hence the machine name.
Sadly after that my imagination ran out ... the server's called
"SERVER" and my current machine is "AQUA" because I
happened to have a bottle of water in front of me when I was
pondering what to call it. Aqua Pura or something like that perhaps.
Like the idea of a Tottie domain though ... my Windows wallpaper
is dominated by fine looking actresses! (of the films, with plot,
category, I hasten to add).
