how about "ODE" or Object Development Environment with a little
reference
to Dylan through the poetic sounding name.
Actually, I have always thought Dylan was a pretty cool name for a
language
and it is a shame you can't use it due to restrictions from Apple's
trademark. It seems this situation is maybe like zope.org which uses
python
as the underlying langauge.
A few other names which sound intriguing to me:
dyson
devd (DEVelopment Dylan)
d (kinda like C :)
func
method
just some ideas,
