Perhaps you could take the "animal approach" to names and designs of mechs. While the names of the mechs don't have to be the direct name of the animal (i.e. Dog, Cat, Spider), instead the names of the mechs could be similar to the genus, class, family, etc.
Although, this concept is far from original, it is logical (that is, if the mechs were originally made by humans or human-like beings).

Remember how long thou hast been putting off these things, and how often thou hast received an opportunity from the gods, and yet dost not use it. Thou must now at last perceive of what universe thou art a part, and of what administrator of the universe thy existence is an efflux, and that a limit of time is fixed for thee, which if thou dost not use for clearing away the clouds from thy mind, it will go and thou wilt go, and it will never return.
~Marcus Aurelius
