Our first 3200 was Mow. Then the 3500 was named MoJo. We sold MoJo and bought the 3510. His name is Curtis Love. I named him Curtis Lowe from the Lynyrd Skynyrd song "The Ballad Of Curtis Lowe". We later named him to Curtis Love... because we LOVE HIM!

Robbie, I'm afraid, as an homage to "Forbidden Planet" - back when Leslie Nielsen was a leading man dramatic actor.

My then 3-year-old named our 3200 Gomer d'Goma, but we just call him Gomer for short. I have no idea what goes through her head most of the time. She named the fish Rodger.

Modog.  My 4-year old granddaughter named him 3 years ago.  She said that since I like dogs and this one mows, that would be a good name for him.  His docking station is his "doghouse."  She loves to watch him mow our 3/4 acre yard.  I highly recommend two lithium batteries to keep up with the mowing.  People stop all the time to watch him mow.

We're getting lots of good names!  I am thinking about closing the contest soon, so if you haven't posted yet and want to, don't delay!  :)

I can't narrow this down by myself; too many good names!!!  Can I have 5 people post their top 3 names?  Let's see if we can get a concensus.
