Of course every device has its own name, but nobody in their right mind
would buy them one at a time from a TLD registry.

For a whole lot of domain names, see https://wild.web.sp.am, click on a 
few links, and look at the domain names.  If you followed the links long 
enough you'd find roughly 2 billion different names.

PS: When I first set up that site, it broke the Bingbot.  After alerting 
one of your colleagues to the problem, who told me that it led to some 
very loud conversations down the hall, Bing now knows enough to stay away 
but I have a log file with 6 million entries from people who don't.
