Re: Robot Names

One word of warning I have to other teams: if you're making up a name for your robot, make sure you look it up to make sure it's appropriate. 10 pages of definitions on urbandictionary.com made our team realize that we needed a new name for our robot.

This year, we're planning to name the robot after our head mentor if it's really good. Otherwise, we're going to name it after one of our clumsy seniors (who enthusiastically volunteered herself).

Just wondering, but do any other teams name the components of the robot? This year our kicker is the Frying Pan (even though it looks nothing like a frying pan) and our pull up mechanism is the Off-Bot-Pro.
