It's especially beautiful, of course, if the abbreviation again results in a new word. Particularly used for complex robot names, they are convenient because they can aggregate a lot of information in a small space.
The preferred choice for characterizing robots in their names are of course acronyms, but also simple descriptive names are sometimes used. The name of a robot can point directly to its functionality and serve to characterize them. So let's have a look at the different types of names for robots! Of course, we'll provide you with plenty of examples of robot names that you may or may not know. Of course, there are no constraints in the naming of robots, so we can enjoy also a rich variety of different names. Also, the pattern "*** the robot" or the name Robbie enjoy great popularity, as well as pure fantasy names. Also, names with robot-specific word components are frequently being used so that we find a myriad of Robo***s, ***bots, and Mecha***s. When looking at robot names from the current and past centuries, we find that there are some similarities and patterns which can be observed in robot names.Īcronyms are especially popular today, closely followed by individual proper names. Robot Names - From Highly Creative to Pretty Boring We deal with all kinds of names for artificial life forms: robots, machines, and automata, whether they exist, have existed, or whether they are sprung from the realm of legend or the imagination of science fiction writers. In our analysis of the naming of robots though, we do not distinguish between real and fictional machines, automata and artificial intelligences. Meanwhile, several decades (and in some cases even centuries) ago, robots made the leap from fantasy to reality. Pandora was formed out of clay by Hephaestus Olimpia is the robot woman whom the protagonist in ETA Hoffmann's "Sandman" falls in love with, and Hadaly was the first fictional artificial life form which was called "Android". We already know concepts of robots from earlier times like Greek mythology and literature of past centuries. Machines, robots, and androids, are not a recent invention: artificial life forms have kindled the imagination of mankind for centuries. Share Tweet Mail Share Robots Have (His)stories
