Name them after GTM members 

[Scrapyard24c]

I usually name my robots after what their intended use is or a trait the robot has. Two examples are one of my rammers, Kamikaze, which barrels into opponents head-on as if it were on a suicide mission and Shrapnel II, a horizontal bar spinner that is designed to turn it's opponents into what it's name implies.  Other times it's a theme based name.  My middleweight Enforcer gets it's name because it's skin is supposed to resemble a police vehicle.

Existing robot name + thesaurus = winning.

EXAMPLE:

Chaos = Bedlam / Snarl / Maelstrom

Storm = Tempest / Hurricane / Whirlwind

X-Terminator (exterminate) = Decimator / Eradicator / Eraser

Napalm = Torpedo / Cannonball / Bullet


And so on and so forth.

Add various extra adjectives and suchlike, and you're well on the way.

I use it for the real bots, mostly, but end up recycling the names in RA2. They're all Greek origin and mostly personifications of concepts

Existing/past bot names:
Moros- Personification of the sense of impending doom
Kobalos- a sprite from Greek Mythology, a mischievous creature fond of tricking and frightening mortals.
Apollyon- The destroyer, greek term used for the devil
Nyx- Personification of night
Algos- Spirit of pain and suffering
Keres - Violent or cruel death

Future possible names:
Erebus - Darkness
Tartarus - God of great stormy tartarean pit
Bia - Force, Power, Might, Bodily Strength, Compulsion
Apate - Trick, Fraud, Deceit, Guile, Treachery
Dolos - Trickery, Cunning Deception, Craftiness, Guile, Treachery
Gelos - Laughter
Oizys - Woe, Misery
Phobus - Panic-Fear, Flight, Rout
Phrike - Horror
Momus - god of mockery, blame, ridicule, scorn, complaint and stinging criticism.

I use words with poor literacy(Cozmo, Aztro) a theme(Club Soda to Root Beer) names I plan for real bots(Short-Brake-Jack-Crank-Flash-Gate Stop, Bionic, Cyber,) Or names with alliterative names(Abhorrent Apparatus, Maniac Mechanism, Crazy Contraption, Endless Entropy)

Try nabbing some Nile song titles, if you want really badass bot names. Chained Iniquitous, Arra Of Dagon, Fire Upon Atep, Unas: Slayer Of Gods, Sacrifice Unto Sebek, Execration Text, those are all pretty awesome names

[Naryar]

Any sufficiently badass, fearsome and fitting name. Weapon names, conqueror names, famous battle names, and other warlike names are prefered.

Parodies and satires of the former are totally OK in my book as well.

Chained Iniquitous

Now that is just ridiculous in attempting to look edgy and being meaningless at the same time.

[Kossokei]

Bots named after Morrowind lore are the best names you can get.

match them with themes for bonus points.

That is the least creative thing you could ever do.


None of those sound too good anyway.

Fair enough, I guess taste varies regarding names.

Much like Nerdbomb, I also theme my robots.
Why, right now I have a team in the works named 'Red Extender Network' with just 2 bots so far~
A Beetleweight named 20cm and a Middleweight named Infamous Glasses
