According to the Ultimate Star Wars factbook, that droid (an R1-series shopkeeping drone) helps to run Watto's shop. It doesn't appear to have a canonical name.

"An R1 Type shopkeeping drone handles most of the routine business operations, while Watto's slave, Anakin, repairs and cleans machinery, allowing Watto to dedicate more time to his gambling interests"

  • Interesting that it appears to have Yoda-ears. I wonder if this was a subtle reference by the designers?
