I still haven't gave up on hope of converting something awesome, one of my idea is to convert Tartaros pattern Terminator into something similar to Thallax Cohort from 30k to stand in as Infiltrators.

Problem is - I don't know how would a Mechanicum Automata be named. I don't see a pattern in mechanicum robot naming - Cataphract is after heavy cavalry of old but rest is some form of hogwash to me.
I thought about something like Parvux (from Parvus - latin for small) to denote that they are lesser versions of Thallax. Could you give me some help in naming new "pattern"?

I'm pretty sure there is no standard nomenclature, so you could do what GW does and google translate things into Latin until you get something that a) roughly describes the automata and b) sounds cool to someone who doesn't speak Latin.
