Any modern Thinkpad will run any Linux distro easy, from bios updates up to gaming with Proton. Dell laptops also have a good linux support. Try to avoid laptops with Nvidia cards though, AMD driver installation is way easier if not completely invisible/painless.
probably everyone realized that google is peeking in your private business anyway so it's ok to continue use cheap stuff + no play services installed.
If I may: a good name is good. a name that combines well with the surname is great. Think of Star Wars names: they are great because they mate good names and surnames. Han Solo Boba Fett Cassian Andor etc...
That said, my personal preference is something REALLY old, like Sargon, first ruler of Akkadian Empire, 2400BC. Bonus He/she/they could have also their own personal cuneiform name tattoo: π¬ππ. Now tell me that's not cool.
good hunting.
There are options for debloating (like uninstalling via adb) but the thing I read about camera no longer working after flashing a custom rom made this piece of crap I am writing from my first and last Samsung. Good luck with your Pixel
