At home i usually name my boxes after cartoon charachters like, Batman,Spiderman .... my homelinux now i call Superman....

At work its a whole other story:

1 letter = Environment
3 letter = Applikcation
3 letter = Function
1 numeric = Sequence number

Like pwebbapp1 for ProductionWebbApplikation server number one.
