My first reaction was BOFH (taken), then PFY (available), then DEVNULL
(taken). If you're into Veritas stuff vxvm (available) and vxfs
(available) are available. For the EMC minded there's symm (available),
vlogix (available), and tfinder (available but likely to get you mistaken
for a caddy).
Of course if you want to appear geek, but also pay homage to a certain
band that peaked in the 80's, 1001001 is also still up for grabs. Then
there's the famous RFC1149 (available) and it's younger brother RFC2549
(available).
Or, just to be somewhat obscure, you could always grab KIBO (available).
