I’m having hard time finding names for the different lights that make sense when I ask my voice assistant to control. I end up with ceiling light, but I have more than one ceiling light, and saying Living room ceiling light is a mouthful. I tried giving funny names but I keep getting confused which is which. How did you name your lights?

    How I name things depends on what angle I’m looking at it from. Within HA, everything is named ... which looks something like light.livingroom.overhead.1.

    When I expose it to my voice assistant (Alexa in my case), they are usually grouped and are named something that easy to say and remember like Livingroom Overhead.
