How about designating useful names that inform anyone that actually might need to know a factual name! Example, passenger lift 1. Goods lift, north lift etc etc.

Well it's just a bit dull really. We've already got Alimak 1 and Alimak 2 and Dragon lift in different buildings. Officially these are called CNC-09-SGS-GEN-LFT1 and ... LFT2, I just thought this might be a innocent, low consequence dicking about.
Currently considering Titanic and Hindenburg. Might get told no on that one.

Boring sensible answer: number them. Otherwise maintenance crews will forever be going "which one's Chas and which one is Dave, again?" Or if there's only two in total, Left and Right. Lefty McLiftface and Righty McLiftface.
At my old workplace we had offices like "Upstairs Meeting Room 2" and it was dead easy to find because it was upstairs and between meeting rooms 1 and 3. Then some bright spark had the idea of renaming them all to things like "Turing." Net result, staff spent half their working day going "Where's Turing?" - "Fuctifino mate."
Best thing that my workplace (> 2000 people) ever did was to label every pillar and every floor plate consistently. Pillars are labelled by relative position from the North or South and East or West of the building, floor plates are Floor, North or South, East, Centre or West so 2NW is second floor, North West plate.
My former site renamed numbered buildings to "Turing", "Babbage" etc. it was very confusing at the time and when I left 2 years later people were still using the old numbers.
Beat me to it!
Face and Butt we’re my immediate thought!

Dude, literally 3 posts above yours! A unique identifier is safety critical, this is just titting about.
Ant is always on the left. Problem solved.

Well if it was down to me this idea would be kicked in to touch. The potential for confusion is there and should be avoided at all costs. It’s really not something to apply dicking about to.

Schindler is already a make of lift, so bin dun.
Do ‘management’ and ‘staff’, and put nice carpet in the management one with nice music and a flickering lightbulb in the staff one, with electrical failure sound effects like being in Blade Runner.

Did all you wet blankets even read the OP? Each lift will have a "proper ID for the maintenance records". These are nicknames
When in the Queen Elizabeth(glasgow) hospital visiting mum, me and Sis were in the lift which was packed. As a joke I turned to Sis and said " Is this the lift that got stuck the other day"
All eyes turned to me 😆

Yes that’s why the word confusion was used.

Angelina and Brad
Ok, a bit dated now they despise each other - but there's a bit of gender/sexuality equality - something for everyone.
I reckon first thing in the morning I'd like to cruise up with Brad and talk nonsense (probably eating, he's always eating) and in the evening I'd like to ride down slow with Angelina to wind down.
