UNBELIEVABLE: Best wifi names msn - Caught on Camera

Shakespeare once said that we shouldn't worry too much about names... And that a rose by any other name would smell just as sweet. But he clearly didn't live in the digital age. Nowadays, Romeo and Juliet might be using their WiFi names to send secret love letters to each other. Or perhaps their families would be issuing passive aggressive jabs or veiled threats via their networks' monikers. "A plague o' both your houses." "Parting is such sweet sorrow."

People have been getting ultra creative and quite hilarious when choosing names for their WiFi networks. They're wearing their "digital t-shirts" loud and proud. Using slogans, puns, messages and jokes as a type extension of their personality. Whether it's to shut up Mike's dog next door, or not-so-subtly remind mom (yet again) what the wifi is called, netizens are are silently judging, trolling or amusing anyone within range.

Someone once asked, "What is the best name you've seen for wifi?" and the internet went wild. No less than 15,000 people came to the comments to share the good, the bad, the ugly and downright funny and clever quips they've seen or heard of. Bored Panda has put together a list of the best for you to scroll through while you wait for that next page to load.

Gay married couple here. We named ours "Which one of you is the wifi?" in honor of every time we get asked that at barbecues.

Scrolling through this list has brought me to the conclusion that while I've always considered myself a fairly creative person, I must actually be quite boring. Visit my home and you won't even need to ask, "What's the wifi called?" It's simple and straightforward: "Robyn Home." But that will probably soon change now that I've been re-booted to think outside of the router.

According to experts, your network name says a lot more about you than you might realize. Digital media and communications guru, Amber Burton, likens the naming of our networks to a “digital T-shirt.”

Burton says the names we choose send a message about our identities on our own terms. “It’s all woven into the fabric of how we choose to present and represent ourselves,” she told the Guardian.

As an Aussie

I come from the LAN down under.

Witty WiFi names are nothing new. Ask digital marketer, Federico Prandi. Around ten years ago, he launched something called The Berlin Wi-Fi Project. It's an interactive map of dozens of WiFi names across Germany's capital city.

"On the train home after a night out I was fidgeting with my phone and landed by chance on the list of available Wi-Fi networks," Prandi wrote on his blog.

It became apparent to him that there was more to people's network names than meets the eye. "I looked at the names changing as the train was speeding through the city. They were messages in bottles addressed to the universe as much as to a downstair neighbor," he said.

I live in the heart of a Mormon community in Utah. There’s a network in my neighborhood that’s called “Joseph Smith made it up”

Expert trolling.

Prandi was intrigued. And after the train ride, he kept a note of every WiFi name he spotted across Berlin. "Some were home-design/">funny, others inscrutable," he says. "Every uneventful square in Charlottenburg or residential street in Wedding held a secret, a code I wanted to decipher."

Wu-Tang LAN, No Such Agency, Autopsy Suite, Osama Bin Laggin’, Winternet is coming, Laser Ninja Drachen Liga, I come from a LAN down under, La Kosher Nostra, Drop it like hotspot, Absurdistan are just some of the gems Prandi came across.

Bunch of French students in my appartment block had named theirs Oui-Fi.

Prandi says his favorite WiFi names are the ones that broadcast something to the neighbours: ‘Please play the violin at a lower volume’, ‘It’s too loud by the convenient store” and ‘Your children are s***’.

He says he also came across some seemingly secret interactions. And it appeared people were communicating with each other via their network names. See! What did we say about modern-day Romeo and Juliet a bit earlier?

"I want to believe there’s a platonic, wireless flirting going on there,” the project creator said of one "router interaction" he spotted in his own neighborhood.

My current one is "You kids get off my LAN".

Used to live in a building and three people had the following names:
"Not the NSA"
"Seriously not the NSA"
"Might be the NSA".

One of my neighbors uses "Silence of the LANs.".

The Wi-Fi at my local YMCA is aptly titled "The Y-Fi".

"Titanic Synching"

I live on a boat.

My dad named his wifi "aliens from outerspace" so that his computer says now connected to aliens from outerspace when it connects to wifi.

Mine is "Mom! It's this one!".

Paperback Router.

It hurts when IP.

There used to be a church on the downstairs level of a shopping area in my town. The wifi was called "Jesus is the Answer". So the wine bar on the upper level named their WiFi "Wine is the Answer".

This might be /r/hailcorporate material, but there is this company called CEX and their networks are "Unprotected CEX" and "Protected CEX"

FBI Surveillance Van 1.

Super slow.

When I hovered over the wifi button in Windows, the pop-up said "Super slow Internet Access". I thought that was pretty cool.

My brothers neighbour has a dog that won't stop yipping. One of his other neighbours has their WiFi named "Shut your d**n dog up Dwayne!".

Password is Taco

The password was not Taco.

Bathroom cam 1.

Connecto Patronum.

That's What She SSID.

Jonathan_Livingston_Signal.

My neighbor's is named GoAwayDave. I really want to know what Dave did to deserve such infamy.

Mine is LAN of Green Gables. I live with my sister. If anyone knows of any red headed orphans, let us know.

Winternet is coming.

"Not a M**h Lab" and their neighbors, "Definitely a M**h Lab.".

Bill Wi the Science Fi.

Wi believe I can Fi.

My favorite so far is RCMP Surveillance Moose.

"WillYouBeMyWifi" and previously "WifiAmHome".

Martin Router King.

“Everyday I’m Buffering”.

My network is named Joe's Crab Shack, and we live nowhere near one. We can hear every new neighbor get excited that a Joe's must be right around the corner because the signal is so strong. Year 3 of this and it still hasn't been any less entertaining. I live a block from a university, so there's an endless stream of new neighbors.

Mine is Gilligan's iLAN.

Hide Yo Kids Hide Yo Wi-Fi.

CIA Data Collection Tower.

Lived in an apartment building once. Someone had a wifi signal named "we can hear you having s*x" few weeks later I checked again and there was another named "we can hear you NOT having s*x".

My parents' wifi is the LAN Before Time.

Nikola TesLAN.

Our dorms at school have Ethernet but don't allow us to use routers. To get around it, we named our router Orville's MacBook Pro.

A friends brother had "Riders of RoLAN". I always enjoyed that one.

My sister's name is Eileen so her wifi is called WiFileen which is pretty neat I think.

I have 2 from my Marine Corps days-

Therapistsnextdoor

(Someone in the barracks set that up. That one got the attention of the battalion commander.)

SCIF hotspot (Stands for Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility. No personal electronics allowed in there.) Someone set that up in the barracks next to the SCIF. The chain of command lost their minds over that one.

I was in an Amish part of Pennsylvania and one of the wifi names was 'My Amish parents don't know'.

"Abraham Linksys" was pretty cute.

I use "YerAWifiHarry" at my place.

My ssid is 404_Network_unavilable.

My sister has 3 different networks setup on her router. They're all metal song references. DOWNLOAD with the sickness, the WAN that feeds, and LAN of confusion.

A friend of mine named his WiFi PimpDaddy. I happened to work with his neighbour and she figured out we knew each other. One day she asked why he called his WiFi PimpDaddy. I had no idea, but I mentioned to him that she had asked. The next day she came in and said "He's renamed his WiFi to Nosy Neighbour!".
