  • Just give them ordinary names. Then when someone hears you say something like, “I think Greg is due for a reboot” you’ll make their day that much weirder.

    I’ll sometimes pick ordinary names that are loosely related to the function for memory purposes. ingress01 becomes Ingred, cluster01 becomes Gus (i.e., Gus the Cluster), etc.

    And of course, if there’s a machine that you expect will give you trouble, you name it Richard.
