How to Rename Your Robot Vacuum in Its App
The name lives in the maker's app, and the same name is the one a voice assistant hears. Here is where to find it for six brands, each read on the maker's own page. Brand names are here as references only; Nameryn is not affiliated with any of them.
| Brand | App | Where the name lives | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Roomba | Roomba Home app (iRobot) | In the robot tab, with your robot selected, tap the three dots, then About (Robot Name), then Robot Name. Type the new name and tap the back arrow to save it. In the older iRobot HOME app it is Product Settings, then About (Robot Name), then Product Name. | iRobot support, read |
| Roborock | Roborock robots in the Mi Home app | On the map screen, tap the three dots at the top right, then General settings, then Change device name, and press OK. Roborock gives this for the S5 in the Mi Home app; its help center has no rename article for the Roborock app. | Roborock blog, read |
| Dreame | Dreame app | The robot's device page in the app is where you share, rename or delete it; rename it there. | Dreame support, read |
| Eufy | eufy Clean app | With the RoboVac online, select it, tap the three dots at the top right, then the pen icon, type the name and tap Save. On the L50 and L60 series, tap the settings icon at the top right, then the RoboVac icon. You can also name it at setup, right after it joins your Wi-Fi. | eufy support, read |
| Narwal | Narwal Freo app | From the robot's home page, open Settings and set its nickname. Narwal's Alexa commands use that nickname: "Alexa, ask my robot to clean with Snowball". | Narwal support, read |
| Shark | SharkClean app | Shark says you can name your robot in the SharkClean app and use that name with Alexa ("Alexa, ask Shark to turn on Tom"). It publishes no step-by-step, so look in the robot's settings in the app. | Shark's Alexa skill page, read |
Name It in Three Places
A robot can carry a different name in each app that controls it, and the one you say must match the one the app knows.
- The maker's app. The table above shows where the name lives for six brands. This is the name the robot's own schedules and maps use.
- Alexa. Narwal's and Shark's Alexa commands use the name you set in their apps, as the table says. If you use Alexa, make sure the robot shows the same name in the Alexa app's device list.
- Google Home. Touch and hold the robot's tile, open its settings, then Name, type the new name and tap Save (Google Home help, read ).
Picking a Name You Can Say to It
- Two beats or fewer. You will say it across a room, often over the noise the robot makes. Penny, Biscuit and Rocket carry; Montague does not. The Easy to say theme only shows names of two beats or fewer.
- Not the name of anyone in the house. A robot called Max in a house with a Max means every "Max, stop" stops the wrong one. The same goes for pets.
- Not close to your assistant's wake word. A name that starts like Alexa, Siri or Hey Google wakes the speaker by mistake. The AI agent name generator checks a name against the assistants in your home.
- Plain letters only. Eufy asks for names that are easy to pronounce in English, with no emoji or special characters, when Alexa controls two or more of its robots. Keep the joke in the sound, not the spelling.
- Robot pets have their own rules. Sony's aibo takes a name of 1 to 20 letters, digits or spaces and a pronunciation of 3 to 30 letters, hyphens or spaces (Sony's help guide, as archived on ; the live page is gone), so the Robot pet names here fit it. EMO answers to "Hey Emo!" (Living AI) and Loona to "Hello Loona" (KEYi); neither maker says how to rename them.

FAQ
What should I name my robot vacuum?
Something short you can say across a room, that is not the name of anyone in the house and does not sound like Alexa, Siri or Hey Google. Two syllables work best: Penny, Biscuit, Dottie. If you want a laugh every time it bumps the sofa, pick a pun such as Grime Minister or Count Crumbula.
What are some funny robot vacuum names?
Grime Minister, Count Crumbula, Lady Dustworth, Carpet Diem, Dusty McDustface, Sweep Dreams and Vacuumbelina are a few from the list above. Set Theme to Dust-and-dirt puns for a batch of eight more.
How do I rename my Roomba?
In the Roomba Home app, select your robot, tap the three dots, then About (Robot Name), then Robot Name. Type the name and tap the back arrow to save. The table above has the same steps for Roborock, Dreame, Eufy, Narwal and Shark, each linked to the maker's page.
Can I call my robot vacuum by name with Alexa?
On several brands, yes. Eufy, Narwal and Shark each give Alexa commands that use the name you set in their app. Eufy asks for names that are easy to pronounce in English, with no emoji or special characters, when Alexa controls two or more of its robots.
Does this work for a robot mop, lawn mower or robot pet?
Yes. Set Robot to Robot mop, Lawn mower, Home robot or Robot pet and the names change to fit: Puddles and Mopheus for a mop, Mulch Ado and Edgar for a mower, Sprocket and Wagnet for a robot pet.
Are these names free to use?
Yes. Name your robot anything you like. Every name here was read by hand and screened against a list of brands, famous people and film or game characters, and against the names real assistants and robots already use.
