The Award for Most Redundant Name for a Robot in a Film or Television Show goes to Alpha 1 from the episode “Alpha” of the television show, The Flash. Alpha 1 tells us that her name stands for “Artificial Lifelike Prototype Humanoid Android One.” That could almost be a new game… called Alpha 1.
Rule Number 1. Make an acronym of an existing word.
Rule Number 2. Make it as redundant as possible.
Rule Number 3. Make it robot appropriate.
Example: Beta 2: Brainless Experimental Test Automaton Two
Alpha 1 is the newest addition to Robots in Film and Television.
