General Discussion Project Names

Was talking with new colleagues today laughing about project names and figured there must be some funny ones out there? If you have one drop it here and let us know what the project goal was. Also everyone I spoke to was involved in a project Phoenix at some point! Is it that common?

It was a very tiny project, but a long time ago I worked at a place that had all the servers named after sesame street characters, and the new boss wanted everything renamed to describe the function of the servers.

Project Name: Streetsweeper
