At a former client site, we named most of the hosts(Solaris, Linux, 
HP-UX) after firearm's manufacturers:  sig, colt, sturm, ruger, walther, 
glock, heckler, koch, etc.

For the most part, everywhere else I have worked has been much less 
imaginative, using some naming scheme with letters and numbers, that 
would indicate location, OS, etc.
