I leave for work in a half hour, so won't be online for a while this afternoon but will check back later today.

Thanks, FReepers, for any ideas.

Mine is Bob Barker

Because he is such a distinctive mix of parts according to your description:
Patches
Frankenstein (Franky)
or, if you are a Mel Brooks fan “Frankensteen”
Superglue (Parts stuck together)
Gromit (from Wallace and Gromit)

Then you can always combine the top suggestions together. Everyone in my house had a different name they wanted. Here is the name of my new English Mastiff puppy (I had to put my buddy Samson to sleep.):

“Ace Maximus Tail-thumper, Guardian heir to Samson the Mighty War Dog of the Couch”. Or, “Ace” for short.

I was thinking of getting a dog and naming it “muslim.” It would be great fun taking him to the park and yelling “here muslim, come on boy, now sit muslim sit.” Of course if he misbehaved, I'd have to scold him “bad muslim, bad muslim.”

What kind of personality does it have? Can you post a picture?

We have seven dogs and we named them for their personalities. The red chow is called "Tramp" because he was a feral dog living off handouts on a Navy Base. Our Ridgeback is named "Scrappy" because he's a lion hound with a heart as big as a house; he would fight a grizzly bear if I asked him to. "Trooper" is a three legged pitbull/lab mix. He lost a leg when he was about 5 weeks old and then was abandoned. He came thru with flying colors. "Harley" is a Rottweiler mix that rolls in mud, won't come when he's called, and likes to roughhouse.

Saw a good one today (thread about a soldier’s lost dog), that I’d never thought of...Wyatt.

We usually let pets name themselves. Our Buster actually knocked over one of those big chrome shelving units with our glass-topped cannisters and other breakables on it by crawling under it to retrieve a toy and then using his hind legs (not intentionally) to send our cannisters into oblivion.
Squeak (feline) had an upper respiratory infxn and was very croaky til she finished the abx. Fluffy is gentle and fluffy.
Tigger (feline) bounces up and down vertically when he plays w/his brother, Ninja, who is stealthy and a terrific martial artist. :)

My departed Newf was called Boomer, but I should have called him Velcro with all the leaves and snow balls that stuck to him as he entered the back door.

Lab was called Jake. New lab pup is Coal, for Charcoal. Not too creative, but, the whistle makes them come in a hurry. Happy tails to the new pup.

Names with hard consonants are easier for your dog to hear. The last dog I had I named Tok, after Tok junction in Alaska. It was the perfect combination of consonants.

We had a “Barkley” once. She could carry a basketball around in her mouth, was black and grouchy.
