Ask Lemmy

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.

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.

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

We call ours Sucky McSuckface.

Sir Vacuumsalot

Dustin

Mine is named Rosie. Rosie the robot maid.

Grim, short for The Grim Sweeper

Name's Scruffy. The janitor.

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.

"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.

Robert (with a French accent)

"Our Maya", because that's the name of my grandmother's cleaning-lady we never met her, but we heard probably more stories about "her maya" than about my grandfather.

Have a routine set up.

“Hey Google…Release the kraken”.

Elliot, after the main character from Mr. Robot.

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

Edit: Mop is Minion...also from borderlands games

Crushinator

I just thought it was kinda neat

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

Mimi.

Because it's a Xiaomi.

Mine are named after ATLA characters. Vacuum is Aang, mopper is Katara, litter robot is Lin Beifong (it has clay litter; the previous iteration was Toph), and the cat feeder is Lau Gan-Lan.

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.

Wall-E!

Herbert.

Herbert H. Hoover.

Hondo and R2

Mine is Garry, like from spongebob I was gonna see if I could thcange his noises to match but I can't 😫

Wife

Zippy!

Daddy, Mama and Baby. (Shark brand)

Punky Eufster

Rob the Roomba

We named ours Consuela, after the cleaning lady on Family Guy

Bumpy. It bumps into things.

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

Ours is named Scooper. The kids picked it, and I thought it was funny.

"Ons moeder", which translates to something like "Our mom".
With the idea that if the robot cleans half as good as my mom does, the house will be clean enough to live in.

Consuela, for obviously reasons. No....noooo....

Slurpee!

Kevin.

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

Screamer. Very few people will understand.

I'd call it Taylor Swiffer

We have a Trifo Lucy.

We call her Lucille as an homage to Arrested Development.

Slave-1
