This article [1] also mentions finding lists of program names from LinkedIn profiles, especially this one [2].

[2] mentions:

  ANCHORY, AMHS, NUCLEON, TRAFFICTHIEF, ARCMAP, SIGNAV,
  COASTLINE, DISHFIRE, FASTSCOPE, OCTAVE/CONTRAOCTAVE,
  PINWALE, UTT, WEBCANDID, MICHIGAN, PLUS, ASSOCIATION,
  MAINWAY, FASCIA, OCTSKYWARD, INTELINK, METRICS, BANYAN,
  MARINA
The names of the programs aren't classified; if they were they would not show up on LinkedIn. What the programs actually do is classified information.

Names are the first step though. You can collect a decent amount from them, like when things started, if they are currently in use, which companies deal with which programs, etc.


Codenames can also be useful when social engineering. "Oh, it's ok, I know all about FOXYROT, what part did you work on?"
