The two I’ve used in the past:

\*\*Pretty fly for a wi-fi

\*\ ***Get off my LAN**

And now I’m using:  
\*\*  
Router? I hardly know her!\*\*

Most wifi names I see are fairly boring - probably 90% of people don’t even bother changing changing them, so I see lots of EF371BF5 or BTHUB3172. I did once see ‘The Johnson Family Network’. Um, you probably shouldn’t be letting people know that…
