try this, it works for us.

PKDACC01

P = Production (can use a T for test or D for development)
KD = Location (Kansas Data center in this case)
ACC = application name or abbreviation
01 = server number in application cluster

Works for us very well. We know exactly what type of server it is, where it is, what it does.

After all this great advice
We all are waiting now to hear what you picked

I named the boxes in my lab at the office after knights of the round table. I also threw in Killer Rabbit and Holy Hand Grenade when I felt unusual.
