Mimicing a thread I saw elsewhere.
I generally use this list to name my machines: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mythological_objects
For my main server I use loeding: a modified version of Lædingr, a chain forged by Thor to bind and were broken by Fenrir. (Norse Mythology)
My Raspberry Pi is named ‘raspberrypi’. I’m very creative.
Same thing here, except with a one extra number:
“raspberrypi5”
I have a pi4b called pi4b, a server called Server, an OMV server called OMV and an ARR server called… Arr
I have proxmox called proxmox Docker called docker Postman called podman Router called router Storage called Snapraid but it’s not 4unning Snapraid anymore.
Just as creative as my server called proxmox.
Similar to my scheme:
laptop = “laptop”
nas = “nas”
router = “router”
Then if there are more than one in each category I use nas-0, nas-1, etc.
