Well, the result: @@servername = FAMADMIN, db_name() = FAMADMIN

Which means the started instance of the Sybase-Server is called FAMADMIN 
and in this case the database is also called FAMADMIN. Here is a short 
piece out of the Sybase help that might clarify things:

<snip>
Specifying a server name

If you enter a name for the server, the database will try to use a running 
personal database server or Adaptive Server Anywhere client  of that name 
(depending on the Local or Network options).
If no engine/client of that name is running, one will be started 
automatically using that name.
If you leave the Server Name blank for an engine or client, the database 
will use the first active engine that it finds on the local machine 
(regardless on the Local or Network options).
If no engines are running, one will be started automatically, and will be 
named the same as the database name (or the root of the database file, if 
the database name is blank). For example, starting a database file of 
ASADEMO.DB yields a server named ASADEMO.

I hope this helps you a bit.
Greetings,
Marco
