Typically my team names its robot something that just happens. Our Rookie year it was named "Sheldon", and I'm sure there was some story about it, but I don't know it.
Last year we named the robot "Kim", and dedicated it to the sister of our Lead Mentor (Mark Buckner, SMR Woodie Flowers 2013) who passed away during that same Smokey Mountain Regional. The award ceremony was very emotional, and we are all very grateful to Mark for continuing to be an excellent mentor while going through such a difficult time.
