I used to own a house in France & the neighbours used to try to use our WiFi. If they asked nicely they were given a "guest password". A couple of favourites were:-
Waterloo1815
Trafalgar1805
which were accepted in good spirit by the neighbours.
Today I think it would be:-
Brexit2019
Choosing the WLAN name has also caused much amusement:-
No Signal
Beware Virus
404 Network Unavailable
Connection Failed
No connection
IP a lot
We went for "No Signal"
NJSSAm I Gammon or Woke ? - I neither know nor care.

Past LRs - Multiple FFRs, Discos & a Series I - some petrol, some diesel,
none Electric or H2 fuel cell - yet.

I had "22nd Regiment Safe House" as an SSID for a while just to annoy a friend
I had a customer years ago that insisted on changing some default service passwords on logins that could only be accessed while stood in front of the machine in the secure machine room.
It just so happened that the names of their two major competitors had the right number of characters so I used them as the passwords IID PRO

When I breakout the big wifi antenna you can spot those with good humour. The police house some distance behind me has "Pigs in Blankets" as the SSID, so thumbs-up to Lincolnshire police.
The houses around me are all BT, Vodafone, Sky, TP-Link etc apart from one neighbour who has a hidden network with no SSID. Shame that the extended information elements gives away her name as Sharon and that the AP is used for her Amazon Fire Stick.
I broadcast 2 SSIDs with one of those for guests and untrusted devices. Both have a Lord of the Rings theme.Land Rover - Turning Drivers into Mechanics Since 1948
