Wifi is a necessity in the modern world. If you don’t have Wifi wherever you are, you’re in for a bad time. At the same time, Wifi networks can themselves be the cause of pretty amusing things. Free unprotected Wifi is like a diamond in a coal mine. Because most places don’t have good cellular internet support, hunting for wifi is something that almost everyone has done at least once. This, of course, means that if your someone who has Wifi, you are literally above god himself.
One of the things that have been part of internet culture for a while now are of course, funny or cool Wifi names. It is always a pleasant surprise when you find yourself laughing at a Wifi network name right in the middle of a stressful Wifi search (if the network is unprotected its even better). And of course, there are those instances when a guy in the train accidentally keeps his hotspot on AND it has a funny name. Not only can you lurk on reddit at someone else’s expense, you can also laugh at their Wifi hotspot name. Nice!

But before you change your Wifi name to the latest cool name you came up with, remember that:
- An unconventional Wifi name will make your network stand out to attackers. So keep your Wifi name old and boring if you’re in a public spot like a cafe. Ensure that you have a strong Wifi password.
- You may find it funny to set your Wifi name to something offensively funny, but its usually not worth your friends or family getting offended.
