Then why do they call themselves 'autobots'? Why not fridgebots, toasterbots, machinebot or even better robots? If they can trnaform into everything

I mean, if you're a conscious alien being (though machine like) which can 'think', would you call yourslef an 'autobot'?. But hey, maybe they're just not that creative minded, else they would probably have chose other things to transform in then cars
