Server Naming Conventions

I also know a guy that uses female names .
Apparently got his idea from the "gone in 60 seconds" movie , where Nicholas Cage uses female names for the cars .
 
Using names of comic books, planets etc is fun but what happens when you have 2000+ servers to name?

The company I work for uses platform(3 chars)+location(3 chars)+zone(2 chars)+function(2 chars) to name servers.
IP addresses follow a similar concept.
 
I know a place that names uses the names of South African rivers.

If you have 2000 servers to name you should give up on life. :D
