Both macOS and Ubuntu asks for first user during the installation.
Then both suggest hostname, created by combining entered user name
and form factor of machine being installed. Ubuntu even incorporates
specific model name, read from DMI data.
Thus, macOS and Ubuntu on my laptop would suggest hostnames as
“tomasz-laptop” or “tomasz-thinkpad-t400”.
For the record, Calamares (
https://calamares.io/ – packaged as "calamares"
in Fedora) does something similar, but even simpler, it just always uses
"-pc", e.g., it would suggest "tomasz-pc" to you.
