What name have you chosen for your robot and why?

My Roomba is called Ramiro, after my slightly alcoholic uncle.

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.
