Robot Names 2015

What name has your team given to the robot???



Just curious to know what teams have named their robots this year.
It's always fun to guess and imagine what the teams robots look like according to their name.

Re: Robot Names 2015

Our robot has several names.

The "official" name is (T2G3R)4.

The nickname is "Peabody". We built two robots, the first was "Atlas" and we switched from planning to bag Atlas to bagging Peabody just a few hours before the bag.

And the name in my head for the robot (and actually the vast majority of the robots this year) is BLL. That's from Star Wars IV (A New Hope).

Competition Robot - Decas
Which stands for decade in Latin; Celebrating a decade of Team 1710.

Practice Robot - QuikStack
Which stands for nothing.

Our
Super
Cool
Awesome
Robot

A bit different than our usual themed names, i.e. Knighthawk for the Air Force being a sponsor, Oddjob because we shot Frisbees, or Screaming Knight because it got loud as hell when shooting, but a name nonetheless.
