I don't know, I kind of prefer the Throwbot names for 8500-8507. The Slizer
names are too generic. "Torch" has much more character than "Fire Slizer". As
for Bionicle, the USA shop.lego.com shows the same names as everywhere else so
I'm assuming they'll be the same. Note that Blaster, Spark, and Flare were the
same in all places. Maybe Lego decided to stop screwing with the different
name thing.

I expressed a similar sentiment last week. TechBots or TFG both work, I think.
