Reading Discworld!

[The New Bruceski]

Worth noting that before the events of Feet of Clay golems were mostly named for their function - they were seen as appliances, not people. Shmata was probably literally a dish-washer. Even after emancipation/they discovered the concept of self-ownership many of them just kept those names.

Klutz labors in the pickle factory, Bobkes is of the coal merchant, and Shmata toils at the seven-dollar tailor's in Peach Pie Street.
