I think this 'linux dictionary' might help, but you'll have to wade your way through a ton of entries.

What about 'mutt'? Seems pretty obvious.

You might also consider biff, diff, yacc, or even Sendmail! How about apache, Perl, Tex or man?

The possibilities are endless.

For a dog that big, there is only 1 Opensource name that'll do.

I like Bash as well. Also Perl and Kernel (but not for a female dog). I also like Mint, Slax and Kate. :D

[UPDATE]

We returned the Great Dane puppy - she was real aggressive toward my girlfriend and the other dog.

But now we have a new puppy he is 5 months old he is a mix that will only get to be 30-35 pounds, I have named him Cooper no linux names fit him.
