Hi fellow selfhosters!

What hostnames do you use for your systems and services?
And maybe why if it’s an interesting story.

I’ll start:
Steam Deck: krax
Smartphone: krix (once I get LineageOS installed again)
MiniPC: krux
Reserved for future use: krex & krox

Creative, I know. 😅 The names have no deeper meaning. The x comes from Linux. That’s it.

I know some of you use god names of certain pantheons, such as Thor. But I find that boring as a lot of people are doing that.  
 
 

Now let your pants down and tell me all about

your embarrassing host names!

    I tend to use the names of angels for my personal devices (which surprisingly was inspired by this and not NGE)

    For laptops I tend to use demons instead, just seems to fit better (which actually was inspired by Gundam IBO but this is the list)

    For example:

    • desktop (Linux side) is Raziel
    • desktop (windows side 😩) is Azrael
    • main laptop is Gusion
    • eBay Thinkpad is Barbatos
