I carry a Personal Hotspot where ever I go. The HS name I'm currently using is "OlympicGoldMedalist", ...

you know, the Olympics going on right now.

I can hear people around me wondering who the Olympic Gold Medalist is.

I change the HS name every so often. I've used
MobileFBI_HotSpot
NSAField_HotSpot

I have never used anything about ICE, although I feel like using
ICEstapo_Patrol just to get a rise.

What does anyone think?

No need to have a pissed off jerkoff agent show up at your door or hack into your wifi, right?

For others. You wouldn't want them on total alert needlessly.

The others are fun but that particular word, probably not.

Clever ssid usually means soft password.

The infamous “Ill_hack_you” or some such label is always a fun test.
