I've had the same naming scheme for my personal devices for about 15 years now. The word list is from a show I was watching at the time. Workstations are protagonists, servers are antagonists, mobile devices are child characters.
Last year I finally exhausted names from the first show and added a second one to my name list.
Is it more logical to name them things like phone-2023-1 and cloud-server-5 - sure. But the reality is my personal infrastructure is going to max out at like 40 concurrent devices, and that's including stuff like network devices which does get more "practical" names (like office-ap-1, tv-switch-1) since I rarely ssh into them. So may as well have a little fun with naming
