We had NHL player names at my last place until we hired a real admin and he started using computer nerd type names like “appserver01”. Connecting to database “gretsky” (yes, I know I spelled it wrong) was so much cooler. Would have been even better if it was properly spelled gretzky but renaming the most critical SQL server in a company isn’t an easy thing to do.
