Three names have been shortlisted: it’s up to you to vote for your favourite!
| Brobot | A direct fusion of Brossard and robot, Brobot evokes a digital assistant that is clear in its function, but anything but cold. Thanks to the “Bro” prefix, the name immediately establishes a friendly, familiar, almost complicit relationship with the user. |
| Eko | Modern, multicultural, symbolic: short, elegant and international, Eko naturally evokes “echo”, or response – a key role for a chatbot. Highly accessible both verbally and in writing, this name conveys an image that is both technological and empathetic, perfectly aligned with our user-centric digital approach. |
| Dear Watson | Logical, reliable, reassuring: As Sherlock Holmes’ faithful sidekick, Watson is his intelligent, calm support. This name is ideal for a chatbot that wants to project reliability, rationality and consistency. |
