At a place I used to work all the servers had to start with
a specific two-letter code based on the site.  Ours was "SK",
so on the VMS system I used SKITZO (DECnet limited to six
characters, and I liked the DECnet name to be the same as the
IP hostname).  Later they dropped that restriction, so I named
my new VAXstation PSYCHO.  Later we got another server that I
named PHLEGM.
