These might be innocent requests from browsers configured to use your IP
address as a proxy server. (Maybe there was a proxy server on a previous
instance that used your current address?)

I suggest making your current server{} blocks list all of the
server_name:s that you want to handle, and then let the default
server{} block handle these other requests, with "return 503" or any
other configuration you like.

See http://nginx.org/r/listen and http://nginx.org/r/server_name for how
to configure server names and the default server for a given address:port.
