As someone who's working on a project right now that's full of whimsical/cryptic names (project is called Sandman, modules within the project include Mystic, Hypnos, Lethe, Morpheus, Dreamer, and Lucid), this was validating to read. That said, if my project was anything more than a solo personal project, I'd only keep the Sandman top-level name and rename the modules to things like Parser, Server, Client, etc. to make them more maintainable by others. I keep them because I'm the only one working on the project and I quite enjoy the sense of Hollywood-hacker-montage they impart me when I'm debugging.
