Ask Lemmy

Claptrap because he doesn't do stairs and we love Borderlands games.

Mine is named Rosie. Rosie the robot maid.

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.

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.

Rocky. Because it's a Roborock and we're unimaginative.

Sharkira (shark brand)

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

Mine is named Scoots McGoots.

Wall-E!

Twobert, my first one was called Hoobert as in hoover and have since upgraded and so Twobert

DJ (Dirt Jockey)

Not our cleaning robot, but our wifi enabled air fryer is called PHILIP J AIRFRY.

Getting a notification that my food is ready makes me smile every time.

If I had a wifi enabled toilet or toilet cleaner, I'd name it Lucy Liubot.

Lulu, because the brand name is Lubluelu.

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.

My uncle had three, Sucky the vacuum, Squirty the mop and Sir Robert the mower.

Have a routine set up.

“Hey Google…Release the kraken”.

We have the vacuum and the mop.

They’re Wall•E and EVE, respectively.

i am my own cleaning robot! :)

Robot. I hope it remembers me fondly for not humanizing it when the uprising begins.

Yeah I'm not giving out my wife's name online

Woodhouse, as in Sir Arthur Henry Woodhouse VC, GCB, DSO, DSC, MC. Sterling Archer's valet.

Skynet

I don't have any, but if it had that laser thing on top, I'd call it Geoff, referencing the DIY electric car from top gear

Before it died, Eugene the Eufy robot.

Janet - not a girl

Dustin

Sir Vacuumsalot

Elliot, after the main character from Mr. Robot.

Kreacher because it alerts for no reason and doesn't do a good job at the one thing it was made for.

Roe B Wade and Robot Johnson

I'd call it Taylor Swiffer

Danny "The Trashman" Devito

Ours is named Rachel because once a long time ago I had a dream that my bf cheated on me with someone named Rachel so now we always joke about Rachel doing things around our house when I'm not home. She's been slacking a lot lately though, he'll have to get a new girlfriend soon.

Crushinator

I just thought it was kinda neat

"Well of course I know him. He's me."

Grim, short for The Grim Sweeper

Robert (with a French accent)

Mr Roboto, so we can tell him domoarigato :)

Daddy, Mama and Baby. (Shark brand)

Dj Roomba as a reference to PnR. And Disco, DJs older brother

Sir Clean-a-lot
