Ok, yesterday we went through the painful "sleeping place attribution" (with 10 ppl, it has to be) yesterday, that was made more painful than necessary by the fact that we had to describe the rooms we were talking about. Let's give them names.
We have:
The living room
The small room on the side of the kitchen
The 'bit bigger' room with the huge bed on the other side
The upstairs entrance room
The upstairs side room
The kitchen (need to name?)
The bathroom (need to name?)
The balcony (need to name?)
The hallway (need to name?)
The staircase (need to name?)
The roof (need to name?)

Rooms
* "Dungeon" for the darker, smaller one upstairs
* "Red light district" for the one with big bed and, hmm, red lights ;)
Need to crawl to "my" cave now... :P
the cave
it was decided that one of the rooms on the second floor will be named "the cave" :)
a new revolutionary hero
While having some really great cucumber-soup, we found out that we have a new person for the list of revolutionary hero's: Anca. She almost died during the revolution in Romania. On the day that Ceauşescu escaped his government building with a helicopter, Anca's mom jumped into the room and hugged little Anca (who was just nicely playing the room with all kind of toys around her) so intensely that her neck almost broke.. She had to be in a bandage for weeks after that... So since we discovered that Anca almost died during the revolution, she is now a revolutionary hero & so a candidate name for one of the rooms :D

Naming conventions
Hmm, working on IT, you tend to come across quite a few server naming schemes over time. So far, these pop to mind
-characters from Ghostbusters
-Viking gods
-European mountaintops
-random words that resemble actual Finnish ones but are not + older words for currency
Food for thought? Something travel-related might be nice as well?
Suggestion of simili-finish words
Raaponiklavi
Merojako
Hem... Munitsa
Huf... Brain snap!
Swapping themes
We could give a number to each room, a number to each entry in one given theme, and change the theme every month. The living room would be successively "Godzilla, Zeus, Himmler..." with a consistent theme around the house.
