Other things to brainstorm in besides the word "LINUX" all of which are much less specific to the kernel: 


GNU 
FSF (Free Software Foundation)
Tux (the penguin)
CopyLeft -- the backward (C)

I like something like "NTPCUG Presents the DFW Planet GNU Free Software Conference", with a picture of Tux sitting on a copyleft sphere, and including something similar to but NOT the miniscule window in the lower left, and something like the fruit Eve ate in the lower right... portraying that they are sort of about to get rolled over. 

"Planet GNU" is a website tho, ( http://planet.gnu.org/ ) so before using the exact name I suggest, we'd need to clear it with those guys. For 'freedom' folks, I've seen some very silly stuff happen when names overlap a little.
