*edit #sharingiscaring
Well shucks, this turned out to be a goldmine! You're all dames and gents of the highest order💠 , thanks for sharing.
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.
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 call her by her full name: Rosie the Roomba
Hah! Ours too! :)
Same here
Clean Latifah
Colonel Dustard
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.
Chaos
It's awesome when my 3 year old says "Hey Google start Chaos!".
Clean Elizabeth
Steve McClean
Geoff.
It's a dependable name.
I can't say it has one unless you mean unofficially in which case its probably "Seriously!?"
Sounds like yours needs a jetpack, or maybe poop detection
Mark Suckerberg
Winner
Optimus Grime
Aang. He's an Airbender. The mop is Katara. The litter box is Toph.
Poor Toph, she deserves better.
I wasn't very creative, it's called Robbie.
Same, but we refer to it as the robot cleaner. It was funny because our neighbor living in the lower part of the house is also called that.
Ra-ra-ra-ra-robie? Is that a star ocean reference?
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.
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. 🫡
Since we have a vacuum and mop ours are Vac Bop and Mop Steady
Mine is Succ Boi
Rosey
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.
Por que no los dos?
Wesley Crusher
Omg! Mine is Wesley Crusher too!
Helper, like Venture Bros
Maw maw maw maw maw maw.
Rosey, named after the robot maid from the Jetsons
My mother named hers Hazel
We have two.
Vac Morris and V.A.C Slater.
R2D2, and I have routines to start it with gogo gaget vaccum as a command.
Hedgehog but nicknamed, so Hedgy. (It's in Hungarian. "Sün" is hedgehog, "süni" is the nickname. Yes, the nickname is actually longer but cuter in my language.)
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.
"Beter goed gestolen, dan slecht bedacht" is a Dutch proverb meaning: Better to pirate a good idea, than invent something new but worse. And now we have dikes everywhere, awwwww yeah! FREE LAND
Rocinante
A legitimate salvage

Sir Cleanalot
Gretha, because she cleans up my environment
Wheatley
Does your vacuum talk a lot?
From The Dustinator to just Dusty now.
We have Alfred and Mrs. Doubtfire.
Mrs Hughes from Downton Abbey.
My parents' is called Hair Brain (they have pets)
Chives the Indentured. Once he has repaid his value he will be augmented with a chainsaw and set free to wreak havoc upon the world like all robot vacuums wish to do.
Does anyone feel these things suck? Not in a good way. I've had a hoover since i moved out after college 15 years ago. Dudes a beast. My wife wanted a robot we got maybe a year ago and it barely does it job at best. Constantly replacing parts, frequent disruptions, and got like 600 sq ft on our main floor to clean. Way too much work and when it does work it may get the top layer of dirt but it doesn't feel clean. I can spend 20 min vacuuming the whole house with my regular vacuum and it feels and smells clean for several days. I hope these robots get better but I'm not a fan right now.
I only vacuum/sweep when the drifts of dust and hair become tripping hazards. A $300ish iRobot does a crappy job, but it runs regularly. I just need to empty the bin once every few days.
It works pretty well for me.
Same, mines like a $40 one from a few years back on black friday. Does it do a great job? No, each individual run is objectively not good and it misses some stuff, but over the course of a week it averages out to pretty freaking great and all I've gotta do is empty its bin when I get home from work at least once or twice. 10/10, would recommend and seeing the amount of cat hair its picked up is pretty disgusting.
They don't really clean floors by themselves, they're more designed to maintain an already clean floor.
Roborock S5 series and higher are the best ones, and I love them. They work great and save my wife and I shitloads of time.
Do you have a lot of carpet? Tbh they seem to work best if you have non carpeted floors. Also, there are a zillion robot vacuums out there and the lowest pricing tier sucks major ass unfortunately. If you're not looking to spend at least $250, anything below that isntrash and absolutely not worth owning at all.
Main floor is about 600 sq ft. I'd say 40% is carpeted. It's a pretty normal carpet, not shag but not that super short stuff.
We actually went with a nicer one because we had just adopted a puppy and wanted one that wouldn't smear shit all over the house in case the dog went inside. It was an irobot brand, it was about $500.
Locutus!
Ours is Hugh. 🤓
It's a Shark, so we call it Mako
Melania
Vincent the Vacuum
Mister Back and Forth, as named by a toddler watching it clean.
i don't use it anymore since my current apartment layout isn't suitable, but it was called Cosmic Owl
It's a our third Deebot, and the Costco model is TEO so its name is 3Tee-o.
Don't have one, but if I had, it would be either Kryten or Scutter.
Henk
Dusty
Minuet... because we have her talking in french like a sultry holgram I once knew.
trombone sounds intensify

Mine's "Mako" from Mass Effect, since it has a penchant for running itself off of cliffs (stairs)

Rosie is what I wanted to name ours but I was overridden by our kid.
Patton, panzer, Sherman, and sweepy.
Ours is Rob VacElhenny
On a similar vein, I named mine Charlie because mopping and cleaning floors is Charlie work.
Living Room-Ba. Guess which room the charging base is in
Robbie for teh cheap one, Robert for the iRobot.
I've got one on each floor; Alice and Jeeves.
Sometimes I call him Rocky and sometimes I call him Robot Slave
Rem. The maid from that one anime.
Same. And the mop is Ram
Rems even got a Rem cat girl sticker. Im not fancy enough to have a mop worth naming.
My kid named it Bobby, Robert the robot.

Ricky Megamouth (they/them) - Megamouth sharks suck up their prey.
Cocksucker. Because it sucks more cocks than it does dirt. Which is zero in both cases.
I don't have one for privacy reasons
There are several out there without any connectivity hardware
Fair point
Rocky (Roborock S5)
Weebette. Our first robot was Weebo, Weebette is her daughter. Yes, we like Flubber.
Chole
I'd call them all Snoopy considering the very legitimate privacy concerns.
Bunter
Vactor.

Mine is called "Stoffie" (In Dutch a vacuum is called a "stofzuiger"). It translates to "Dusty".

Mine is Rémi, because when I told my partner the robot's brand (Dreame) they heard "Rémi". Since then it stuck.
When I grew up we had a saying that translate to something like " it was so messy after the eating we could just let the chickens inn to clean up around the dinner table "(chickens are never a clean option). So I named it robot chicken, RELEAS THE CHICKEN!
- I like the show
Roboslave
Mo, the cleaning robot in Wall-E
“This Motherfucker” is what I usually refer to it as.
We have a Shark robot vacuum, so I called it Sharknado.
Mark
We have a Conga brand robot, we just call it "trasto" ("junk" in Spanish).
It's not a friendly nickname, it's a piece of junk that gets stuck everywhere.
Roomer and Roomba
