It arrived yesterday. It needs a name. It has a female American voice so all the male names I had considered are out. Any suggestions?

Well ours is called Artie. He's a boy (despite the female voice).

Mabel I think suits her!!

Whoopi. In honour of Ms Goldberg. But also the noise you make everytime you use her - "Whoopeeee"

Oh, sorry.

Lena, Dora, Edie, Shania, America (or the city she was 'conceived' in

Woohoo!! Thank you mr clem! I think she should be Rita Grin.

goGBTeacher · 29/07/2012 20:01

Renee? I would be thinking like Zelweiger in Chicago?

kickingKcurlyC · 29/07/2012 20:16

I imagined a robot Hoover, and I thought Janice. But Rita is very good.

kickingKcurlyC · 29/07/2012 20:16

Or Samantha.

clemetteattlee · 29/07/2012 22:23

Rita it is (although DD is calling her Rebecca Adlington). Samantha would have been a very good name if it wasn't the name of the robot's owner Wink

How about Nikita or Shakira ? A woman with attitude Wink

sashh · 30/07/2012 03:30

I thought they were all called Nunu

Thumbwitch · 30/07/2012 05:56

I was going to say Herbie but no use if it's female! Shock

How about Vic the Vac? works in either sex. :)

HoldMeCloserTonyDanza · 30/07/2012 18:16

We call ours Roombie

morethanyoubargainfor · 30/07/2012 19:47
