Robot names and Team mottos

[Clem1640]

FRC 1640 is team Sab-BOT-age, in honor of team founder Paul Sabatino.

Our robots are named DEWBOT followed by a roman numeral. DEWBOT stands for Downingtown East & West robot. Downingtown school district used to support our team. Our current robot is DEWBOT IX.

The team motto is "Think outside the 'BOT".

2014: Zygmont Crazy*
2013: Ragnarok

*The students on our team think it would be awesome to hear "Team 708 Hardwired Fusion driving - "Zygmont Crazy"

For 451 we've tried to make our robot's name cat related recently. For 2013 our robot was CATalyst. As for mottos, "If you can't fix it with a hammer your'e thinking too hard." and "Don't give programmers shiny things." would both fit.

Our 2013 robot was originally named Murphy's Lawyer. We lost our first five matches at the Phoenix Regional. We changed the name to Stormageddon. We won our next eight matches.

Our practice robot was also Stormageddon. (We named it before we changed the competition robot's name.)

Our two Vex Toss Up robots were Kevin and Gary after two of our mentors.

Our NURC robot was named Tribble since the mission had a Star Trek theme.

Our 2012 FRC robot was named TiMMy after our sponsor TMM Precision.

How have you not made use of the Fahrenheit 451 reference yet?

[TK3950]

My team, Team 3950, is called RoboGym. Original members were pretty big fans of Dodgeball, so our first robot is named Me'Shell. The second robot is named Steve the Pirate. I'm not such a fan of this theme, but I wasn't on the team for the first season, and I was in Italy when the second robot was completed and named.

[Maine951]

No offical robot name yet, but our team motto has always been "The mind is a terrible thing to lose"

Although when our team first began someone accidently but The mind is a terrible thing to use on our t-shirts which stuck for two years XD until someone finally said we should probably fix this.

[EggotheKilljoy]

Our robot names have been simple male names since Rebound Rumble. There has been:
Paul(an omni practice drive train)
Steve(Rebound Rumble)
Charlie (Ultimate Ascent)
Mike (Arial Assist).

As for our motto, I believe it is "We are the answer to life, the universe and everything.... squared"

[mkausas]

Our team (Team 2485) name is the "W.A.R. Lords" so we name each of our robots after a War Lord. This year we named our robot after Sun Tzu, Chinese General and author of the Art of War.

[lukedude43]

Our practice robot's name is Paul and our robots name is !paul

[MARS_James]

Our robot name this year is Vertigo

Our team motto is: "Work Hard; Think Harder"

[Tyler_Kaplan]

Well with our team it usually has to do with something that is unique about that robot. For example, for 2013 we used a lot of pop rivets, so we just named the robot rivet. But my favorite was for Rebound Rumble. One of the lead animators for Pixar (He worked a lot of Wall-e) came into our lab and gave a presentation. After that he signed our robot by drawing Wall-e on our shooter head, so we decided to name it Ball-e.

We named our robot Charles Darwin this year. We always name the robot after someone who made a large contribution to a STEM field.

Also because we can call the robot Chuck, which is tragically ironic because the only thing we can't do this year is throw the ball...

[Nick.kremer]

Team 3512 always names our robots after Greek or Roman history.

2011 Thermopylae (the battle depicted in the movie 300), Thermo for short.

2012 Leonidas (Spartan King who lead the battle of Thermopylae), Leo for short

2013 Cynisca (a Greek princess of Sparta, the first woman to win at the ancient Olympic Games.)

2014 Wouldn't you like to know....

Team motto: "It's not about the Robot"

[xXhunter47Xx]

Our Team Name this year is "Patribots" because that's our school mascot and it sounds cool. Last year's was No Robot!, a terrible inside joke.
We haven't named our robot yet.
Our unofficial motto is "Robot first, food second, safety third".
