Mine is close.  At home, I name it after famous actor last names; price,
lawless [blame my wife for that one], chaplin, ...  Those will never run out.


At work we chose 'celestial body' names.  Boy, was that mistake.  We're
running out of names.  We're now fighting over 'Asteroid S/1998(45)1' vs. 
'S/1993(243)1' for the next machine ;)

sci-fi character names were reserved for the children [yes, I have a daughter
with the name Delenn].
