I have seen two conventions pretty widely used.
I prefer (1) for style reasons, but (2) seems equally sensible.
1) clock.<domain>
Examples: clock.home.net
clock.nrl.navy.mil
clock.umd.edu
clock.cmc.ec.qc.ca
clock.uregina.ca
clock.cuhk.edu.hk
clock.nc.fukuoka-u.ac.jp
clock.isc.org
clock.sgi.com
clock.via.net
clock.osf.org
clock.llnl.gov
2) ntp.<domain>
Examples: See http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/ntp/clock1.htm
