I prefer version numbers. If you want to give it a nickname too, that's fine, but having to remember what order mythical names were released in just to track versions is super annoying.
The trick with nicknames is using them in alphabetical order.
It would violate my NDA to say anything more than: yes, all of the software I've helped develop use the name of mythical creatures during development
Don't know much mythology. Do Thunderbird and Firefox count?
Edit. Just realized those aren't version codenames.
I just realized thunder+bird is wordplay for fire+fox. Damn am I slow.
For a while Debian had IceDove and IceWeasel due to trademark issues.
Closest I can get is my server is hosted with a company called Mythic Beasts, who use mythological beast names for their hardware.
Lansweeper uses Belgian beers. Not quite mythological but I think that's pretty funny.
All releases are named after Celtic goddesses/gods from Wales, Ireland, Gaul etc.
Yeah I think everything that I'm aware of uses version numbers, not that the numbers always necessarily make much sense either
