2020-07-21 How Others Name Computers

I wrote a quick post a little bit ago about how I name computers for Cornish Saints. Quite a few people posted replies to my question asking what others do.

solderpunk has settled on a Dune character for their laptop.

itsdave is using moons of Saturn. My wife would approve as a fan of the boardgame Solarquest.

bouncepaw is using location names from a fantasy series.

happycreature is using planets and stars.

There are several other backlinks in GUS, but they aren't loading for me at present. I did have a look the other day, but I've forgotten exactly what they were. As I recall there were more space and sci-fi/fantasy references. Those are clearly popular in these parts!

Thanks to people who answered!
