What is the name of your Wi-Fi network?


What is the name of your Wi-Fi network?

holland_coffee_wifiThe (Holland-based) CoffeeCompany got  a lot of publicity recently because they continuously change the names of their Wi-Fi networks to persuade visitors to order more coffee. A few examples:  

OrderAnotherCoffeeAlready
BuyCoffeeForCuteGirlOverThere?
HaveYouTriedCoffeeCake?
BuyAnotherCupYouCheapskate
TodaysSpecialExpresso1.60Euro
BuyaLargeLatterGetBrownieForFree

One of my neighbors uses a naughty SSID which I won’t reprint here.

My own network is called “VirusTrap63” which I came up with to scare people into not joining. Yeah, I could also just secure it but that is just boring.

So what did you name your Wi-Fi router?
What would be a better name for my Wi-Fi network?
What funny SSIDs have you encountered?
