The fact that he is a robot is not important.
- Close friends and family members do not use くん/さん at all when they call one another.
- At classrooms, English-based names may resist くん/さん earlier because everyone knows it's not used outside Japan.
- Generally, mass media do not use くん/さん to address a celebrity, active sport player, etc (there are complicated house rules). Ordinary people do not use くん/さん when they refer to them. I have never thought of calling Super Man スーパーマンさん even though he is not a robot.
アトムくん is a perfectly valid option for someoneto those who workswork with Atom in a businesslike manner, like his teacher.
