Do you have a name for your house?

I call mine Chez Entropy. It certainly seems to fall apart the longer it goes on and keeping up with maintenance is challenging to say the least.

 

Jerry Pournelle used to write a column for Byte magazine and he called his house (and maybe the column too) Chaos Manor. I miss Byte.

 

So do you have a name for your house?

The "name" for my house used for my main ISY group, the sub-domain under which my house is linked to the Internet, my Windows 7 Homegroup name, and the wi-fi SSN, is, simply, "HOUSE."

I call mine Home. :) I think once my new UBI arrives, the house my get called Issy. As in: Ubi, Tell Issy "I'm home" or Ubi, Tell Issy "I'm leaving, lockup!"

I haven't named my house, but I named the "brains."

 

My first was a Vera, so I names her S.A.R.A.H. after the house in the TV show Eureka....they both definitely have a mind of their own!

 

Once I got the ISY, I named it J.A.R.V.I.S. after Tony Stark's home computing system in Marvel comic books.

 

S.A.R.A.H. = Self Actuated Residential Automated Habitat

J.A.R.V.I.S. = Just A Rather Very Intelligent System

This made me smile as S.A.R.A.H. was what I call my RaspberryPi assistants to my ISY. As for names, the The Lair, Casa Piedra, and The Cabin (ok the last one isn't too unique but I grabbed it first for Facebook checkins in that area so it stuck).

I call mine Rosie after Rosie the house keeper from the Jetsons. I also have Rosie setup as a contact in my phone when I get emails or text messages from her a picture of Rosie Perez (circa "White men can't jump") pops up on my phone
