    Umm, these are probably stupid names but...

    Game Name: Phone Home
    Astronaut Name: Ted/Jerry
    Robot Name: Zox/Giga (like in gigabyte)

    I'm not very creative but I thought I'd try to help out. :)

    Before I help with a name I need a bit more info...

    Not even about the gameplay elements so much as just the basics of the backstory/plot.

    Is our astronaut repairing his ship, sending out a signal to be picked up, or just trying to survive as best he can on a hostile alien world until his supplies run out?

    Clever questions!

    He is trying to repair his ship, and his robot is helping a lot with that. Actually it would be impossible without the robot :) It is a hostile world out there and he needs to be very clever how to use his resources to be able to survive..

    ..hope that helps a bit ;)
