We've got about 20 different partitions on our large Cray system, with a 
variety of names (our submit filter system directs jobs to the right 
location based on what the user requests and has access to):

cat /etc/slurm/slurm.conf | awk '/^PartitionName/ {print $1}'
PartitionName=system
PartitionName=system_shared
PartitionName=debug_hsw
PartitionName=debug_knl
PartitionName=jupyter
PartitionName=regular_hsw
PartitionName=regular_knl
PartitionName=regularx_hsw
PartitionName=regularx_knl
PartitionName=resv
PartitionName=resv_shared
PartitionName=benchmark
PartitionName=realtime_shared
PartitionName=realtime
PartitionName=shared
PartitionName=interactive
PartitionName=genepool
PartitionName=genepool_shared
PartitionName=genepool_resv
PartitionName=genepool_resv_shared

I've not had issues with naming partitions in the past, though I can 
imagine `default` could cause confusion as there is a `default=yes` 
setting you can put on the one partition you want as the default choice.

All the best,
Chris
