“The password of [neighbour’s SSID] is [embarrassing password]”
Or some such. Not sure if it was the real password, but soon after everyone was doing it to one another and it got people super confused.

I named mine to reflect the local police force and my neighbours kind of went quiet.
I just use the same standard, boring name I got with my router 10 years ago and I change it to be the same with each new router. Because I'd rather be fucked in the ass than update my 100 devices to connect to a new wifi.

I think I've seen "FBI Van" at an old apartment I used to live
Mine was named FBI Surveillance Van #3. Neighbor was a pot dealer and was freaking out, asking another neighbor if he had seen that signal. Best part? We were far enough away that the SSID would fade in and out at his house, like it was moving.
Other than BeBlessedandMoisturized, my neighbors don’t seem too creative with their WiFi names.
soyballs though 👌

Hide ya kids hide ya wifi
Don’t answer; script kiddies can find out where you live based on these names.
On a work trip in the mid 2010s. We were staying at a hotel located near FB/Meta HQ in Menlo Park.
Once I was in for the night, I went looking for WiFi and then I saw it:

One that is popular in my country is Michiel de Router which is a play on the VOC man Michiel de Ruyter.
But yeah sometimes there's an FBI Surveillance Van or a "It's this one Mom!"
