UPDATE

A member of Reddit has now mined all the names Fallout 4's Codsworth will happily say. You can find the full list here. And 1000, Bethesda? We make it 924...

Original Story

So we already knew that Fallout 4's AI companion Codsworth would have a thousand names programmed into his little metal head but does he know yours? There are 121 names and counting already confirmed so check if yours is here. This isn't an exhaustive list just yet but a good start. It was started by Reddit user PM_ME_FREE_STUFF_PLS but we've added to it with tests over the weekend.

Amongst those confirmed are Leon, Alex, Max, Ashley, Emily and a tonne more - and yes, F**kface is in there. Check out the video for more and the big confirmed list below. However, if you, like me, are called Louise then it's hard luck and you're just 'maam.' I'm not bitter, honest.
