I don't think it's weird or nuts to name computers. I name everything! My A4000-T is zephiris, the AMIX box is motoko.
At work people used to get annoyed by my naming conventions (generally, anime characters) which got even worse when we introduced VMware and physical machines had multiple names! We actually had as a topic in a meeting of what scheme to use for naming new machines/VMs. It was actually written down that we would use characters from the Matrix.
I just thought that was kinda funny.
