At first, I called them "autochefs," but it felt a little too much like a brand name, and also, I wanted to follow a naming convention where their advanced tech (it's an SF novel) has mundane names.
Phones are the size of a felt pen and can be unfolded into glasses, but they call them "phones."
The mass transit is essentially flying trains that are a block long, but they're just called "buses."
