<< FALSE!! It is the name of a vibrator that Fagen & Co. saw in a sex toy store. >>

Easy on the caffeine there Todd. Apakhabar is definitely on the right trail. You've got part of the story too: From steelydan.com

"With Fagen on keyboards and vocals and Becker on bass, they decided to sign up guitarist Jeff "Skunk" Baxter and drummer Jim
Hodder. With the core band recruited, Donald and Walter need a name for their group. Since both of them were avid readers of 1950's
"Beat" literature, they decided to name the band "Steely Dan" after a dildo in William Burrough's "Naked Lunch."

Marc: You started all of this. (BTW: the answer to your question is 6:35 am PDT)
