NEED HELP NAMING A ROBOT

CloseIf anyone has the time or is willing, I need help naming a robot character in my game. I've been actively trying to come up with something for the past three weeks (very passively for the last several years), and while I've come up with some names that I do like, they break rules that I have (I hate having main characters whose names start with the same letter).
If it helps, the robot is tiny. Over the years, he has developed a Napoleonic complex, and he gets very angry very quickly (my wife likened him to a robotic Mr. Resetti).
Letters I would like to avoid starting his name with are: A, B, G, L, M, N, and R.
All of the above letters are either letters that my other main characters' names start with, or they're letters that I've found I use far too often to start a major or minor character's name with.
If anyone can help me out with this, I would greatly appreciate it.

I'd really like to get rid of LockeZ. His play style is way too unpredictable. He's always like this too. If he ran a country, he'd just kill and imprison people at random until crime stopped.

Maybe if you told us some of the names that you like but that start with the wrong letters, we could suggest similar names starting with other letters

Sure. Here are a couple I really like that use one of the aforementioned letters.
Nem
Robespierre
I was also looking at names that use an "x" in them, like Maxwell, Maximus, Proxwell, or Proxis, but all of those are kind of terrible.
Once I have a solid name, I'll turn it into an acronym to make it sound suitably robot-like.

It might help to list some of the words you would use in that acronym, ones that actually describe this robot.

Well, I'm not really partial to any words in particular. They would just be used to make the acronym. They could be anything: mechanical, positronic (for the Asimov fans), electronic, etc. I don't have my heart set on any of them, really. I'm just looking for a base name.
I know it feels like I'm not giving a lot of guidance aside from some letter restrictions, but that's because I'm really not set on anything in particular.

Any other info you could tell us about him? Like how and why was he made, what equipment does he use, what is he made of, etc.

Things that are known:
He was created in the future and was sent several thousands of years into the past. He has been used as a translator at least once to allow different races to communicate with one another. His range of uses is varied. He has a lot of what you would expect a robot or mech to have: missiles, guns, lasers, etc for combat. He will also have a set of missiles he fires at his teammates to heal them.
His design is not final. He could have a plated body. He could be steam-powered. He could be nuclear-powered. He could be made of nano machines. I am very flexible when it comes to aesthetics.
For this topic, he is a generic robot in his his physical presentation, and liberties can be taken with any names offered up.

Any of those names sound good?
