Neither of my computers have names yet, so today's holiday came just in time!
I looked around and have come up with the best names for my computers.
My Desktop - Derfel
It is Welsh and means 'stubborn prince'. I like it. I think this weekend Derfel will go home with me and either I will leave him with my parents, and/or I will wipe Derfel clean and install Linux on him. Derfel has an exciting, life changing week ahead of him.
My Laptop - Endillion
Endillion is Gaelic and means 'fire soul'. The name is beautiful and fitting. (Not just because my MacBook tends to run hot.) With classes starting soon Endillion will become more active, going to campus with me everyday and traveling in her stylish, super cool blue bag.
Here are some name books if you need help: Baby Names Hold, Baby Names World, BabyNames.com
You can share the holiday fun and send an ECard!

Im super creative with naming my devices:
Desktop - mavr1k
Laptop - imavr1k
iPod - mavr1ktouch
The only device I have with an original name is the headless linux box that sits beside my tv, dubbed "Dudeus" - from a series of mountain dew commercials that aired in 2003. (Cant find them anywhere now, but it was "Thirstus Quenchus, Dudeus")
All my computers are named Clarence. I have Clarence V and Clarence VI at the moment. :)
