1) I'm aware of not-really-important projects that have an obvious connection between their code words and the thing described by the code word.
2) Many, but not all projects have randomly generated names. It's really up to the discretion of the -for lack of a better term- project manager and his supervisor whether they use the random name or use a more evocative one. DESERT SHIELD and DESERT STORM were two high-profile classified projects from the early 1990s whose names were not randomly generated.
