Stepsister. So when I get a notification when I'm away from home that it's stuck, I giggle instead of raging

That would just make me horny.

Mine is Rosie, the maid in the jetsons, cause it's the future and I have a cleaning robot.

[–] taffingitout@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago

Same here!, although we call her by the Spanish version "Robotina". Just in the hopes that more of the stuff from the Jetsons actually comes to fruition.

I know a bisexual woman who named hers Carpet Muncher.

We had a Shark brand bot named Shart.

Then we had to send it in for repair and for a newer model in return. Now we have Shartito.

It's awesome when my 3 year old says "Hey Google start Chaos!".

Hoover, because the British call vacuums Hoovers and also because J Edgar Hoover was a bottom feeding shitbag like my sharkvac was when my dog took a shit on the floor and it dragged shit in neat lines on the floor.

[–] Bathtubwalrus@lemmy.world 13 points 11 months ago

Oooo I actually just got a new robot and named him S8AN, cause it's model is the S8, and who doesn't like to say Satan is mopping the kitchen ? My previous ones were Fernando and Fernandos (dos like 2 in Spanish, which I thought was pure genius ha). Fernandos is still in use, Fernando has been retired to robot heaven after a few years of diligent service. 🫑

I wasn't very creative, it's called Robbie.

Fluffy. Ever since I was a kid, I wanted a killer robot and name it Fluffy. My parents never got me one, so once I hit midlife crisis I got myself a cleaning robot and named it Fluffy. At my age, I appreciate clean floors more than seeing the blood of my enemies.

We have two.

Vac Morris and V.A.C Slater.

Hedgehog but nicknamed, so Hedgy. (It's in Hungarian. "SΓΌn" is hedgehog, "sΓΌni" is the nickname. Yes, the nickname is actually longer but cuter in my language.)

[–] misophist@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I'm not very clever, so my nearly useless Shark vacuum is named Baby Shark, but I'm going to steal one of these when I get a good one.
