What name have you chosen for your robot and why?
My Roomba is called Ramiro, after my slightly alcoholic uncle.
Claptrap because he doesn’t do stairs and we love Borderlands games.
Edit: Mop is Minion…also from borderlands games
Mine is named Rosie. Rosie the robot maid.
Ours is Rosie too!
There’s three of us!
Ours is also Rosie, it just seemed so obvious
J. Edgar would be a good name
“Johnny 5 chan” and i set the voice to Japanese. I have no idea what it’s saying exactly but it sounds very polite when it’s stuck.
Oni-chan help, I’m stuck on a cord.
Herbert.
Herbert H. Hoover.
We named ours after our blind cat, Musetta. She would walk in straight lines until she met a wall, at which point she would turn and continue in another straight line. She had recently died when we got our first Roomba, so it was like reincarnation to us lol.
Sharkira (shark brand)
Rocky. Because it’s a Roborock and we’re unimaginative.
Have you read Project Hail Mary?
Both seeing this question, and seeing how many people apparently have cleaning robots, is making me realize I live in more futuristic times than I thought. I remember people getting exited about Roombas when I was very young, but not having heard much about them for years apart from the occasional video of cats messing with one, I sorta must’ve assumed they weren’t really good enough yet to be common and had never thought to look into them
They are a total game changer if you have the floorplan for it. We are one story with no carpet so it works well.
They are now affordable enough and give you back a nice amount of time you would otherwise spend cleaning.
I was excited once I could reasonably afford one. You also have to robot poof your house.
Scoots McGoots
Wall-E!
Twobert, my first one was called Hoobert as in hoover and have since upgraded and so Twobert
Pleco. I have a couple freshwater fish tanks and the plecostomus is a common algae eater used to keep tanks clean. So I named my robot vacuum Pleco lol.
We call ours Sucky McSuckface.
