Boring names I know, but makes it easy enough at LAN parties to not have the same name as everyone else

I named my work servers Tatooine, Coruscant, Dagobah, Bespin, Yavin amd Kashyyk. The workstations get generic 'duty' names.

Well, I have two naming conventions, beers and mythological names.
I've even sorted the mythological names in a somewhat geographical order :D

First you know on the doors, and Cerberus greets you(firewall).
Then it's time to move on, and you'll run into Charon, once you've paid, you'll enter Hades.
You can also run in Hecate here.

The workstations are named Grimbergen, Duvel, and Rochefort, and I have my trusty Ultra1, I named it Beast, granted it doesn't follow the previous names, but it's such a mighty box I figured Beast was a good name :D
