Do you name your servers?
 
If so, what do you name them? :)

Personally, I don't have any servers yet. But, I'm on Fire. Hosted on a server called fire, that is :D

I know some people who name their servers after famous people. Personally, I would probaly name my servers Box 1, Box 2, etc.

My current colocated server is named after my business OkazakiTech. Back when I was hosting from home I just named it server1, I'm not one for thinking up good names.

I use egyptian names like Ramses, Cleopatra and so. It's always useful to name your servers to quickly identifying them instead of saying the IP number.

I use the first name that comes into my head. I have one called snappy, one called server, one called enterprise and one called charon. My home PC is called voyager and my laptop is called defiant. Oh, and the mail server is called mail.

So there is a startrek theme for some of them, those are the ones on my home network which is called starship (as far as windows is concerned).
