How do you name your servers?

jinxy

Server company name and basic specs, like "ovh4c4g80g". Boring, but it lets me know when i ssh in what I should or shouldn't be expecting to throw at it

I didn't come up with the naming scheme of our servers, but I always wanted to do a South Park cluster where all the server names are characters from the show.

Kenny is rebooted by cron each night.

As for naming, purely purpose for me:
web0X
mx0X
smtp-out0X
backupX
nsX and so on..
