There's no procedure for choosing Debian codenames - there's nobody to lobby. What essentially happens is that a lot of Debian Developers in certain core teams get drunk at one or other DebConf conferences and pick a name, test the waters with their fellow DD's after the hangover and then announce it on the debian-devel-announce mailing list. The only real rule is that the codename must be a single word, with no hyphens, punctuation or spaces.
So basically lobby every DD who drinks?Alternatively he could redub a Toy Story DVD so that all the characters have the name he wants, and hope nobody noticed. "Buzz Sutton" and "Sutton the cowboy", Potato Sutton" etc.
