What if you would have 2 devices of same type with same OS or just with OS that starts with same letter? Will you use numbers, if yes, how much leading zeroes if any you will use? If you don't use numbers, will you add a room name? But what if there are 2 devices with same OS in the same room?

Luckily I'm not responsible for naming my wife's devices, otherwise the whole scheme would be up shit creak. As it stands I have a dual-boot desktop, a daily laptop, a surface pro4, and an old laptop running Ubuntu server for various self hosted stuff. I've managed to just use 3 letters, I assume as I amass more tech I'll need to start adding numbers, if I have to label for rooms I'll have more than a data hording problem.
