How about the Sprintlink:

sl-pop-router#-port[-speed].sprintlink.net

As an example?

It's useful for Sprintlink NOC guys (they can see the router and port
from DNS) and it's useful because it shows rough or exact link size
information to outsiders.

But instead of h0/0, use h0-0; s2-6; etc...

Just a suggestion...

i.e. icm-petersbathroom-2-s2-1-512.icp.net
