Bruce answered this a while back. It stands for Deborah and Ian, the people
who started off Debian.

Over to you Bruce....

Subject: What does Debian mean?
Date: 25 October 1996 09:03

Hi,
I know this is not terribly important but I was wondering where the name
debian
came from. Maybe those that have been in the project long could share that
with
those of us that joined when debian had been underway for a long time
already.

Thanks,
Luis.
