What Is Your Mac's/iPod's/iPhone's Name?

On all my leopard "Macintosh HD"
On my server "Server HD"

and Bootcamp "Windows HD"

and all my other hard drive I name it according to its size. eg. "HD 500", "HD 640", "HD 1000"
 
I just leave it standard. Macintosh HD. I call my bootcamp partition Windows. If it is an external drive I will call it whatever the brand name/model name is.
 
If I can give it one, I name it Carmela.
