I'm about to try some custom wake words, I can think of these so far:

  • Hey Assistant
  • Hey GlaDOS
  • Hey Skynet
  • Hey Tardis
  • R2-D2
  • CPU
  • Computer
  • Operator

I'll use them for a while and see which one I like best.

What wake word are you using? Do you have some other cool ideas?

I maintain a list for my as-yet-unimplemented setup. Mainly fictional butlers, housekeepers, secretaries, assistants, henchmen, computers, mascot characters, and robots:

Woodhouse, Jeeves, Igor, Igor, Meadows, Duckworth, Kato, Wadsworth, Lurch, Passepartout, Riff-Raff, Giovanni, Jarvis, Alfred, Hayate, Daphne, Effie, Della, Janine, Isabelle, Cheryl, Carol, Smithers, Hastings, Baldrick, Rocksteady, Bebop, Renfield, Reinhart, Hamegg, Meeseeks, Muttley, Smee, GIFfany, Pinoco, Agnew, Pokota, Ryo-Ohki, Luna, Artemis, Kyubey, Haro, Boothby, HAL, SAL, Friday, Edith, Peerssa, Tima, Multivac, Clippy, Asshole, Dipshit, Bitch, Dickwad, Fuckhead, Satan, Sweetie, Eddie, Marvin, Rosie, Grovel, Kilroy, Gort, Conky, Holly, Ziggy, Joshua, Balthazar, Caspar, Melchior, Karen, Nanmo, Bournemouth, Tachikoma, Kryten, Sumomo, Melchizedek, Agimus, Peanut Hamper, Badgey, Goodgey, Logic-y, MPU, and Flexo.

I'm leaning toward Meadows.

Great list!

(Winston is missing, but I guess he's covered as Jeeves)
