I guess some kind of man eating panda that stalks the night looking for victims in dense urban areas
Some sort of tactical strategy commonly used in a multiplayer video game. Like rushing or revealing (or at least I think that's what it's called. It's that strategy where one person runs out in the open jumping and strafing around to cause the other team to fire and reveal their position, then the rest of the team comes out and takes them all out).
Some sort of giant particle laser doomsday device thing that would destroy the universe, OR some sort of all powetrful being.
My great mounument to me which is being built as we speak. You recieve an automated broadcast alerting you of when you are to report for work detail. this message will repeat in 5 minutes. Till that time we will test all our loudest and most annoying beeping sounds...*click*
A programming language.
"I code fluent Karl/Charles."
Preferably lisplike functional OO.
... On a side not it's not an impossible goal, look at Haskell...

The lightbulb and the indoor toilet.
It makes sense when you know what my second name is (well for the lightbulb anyway...)
"Awh, shit, my Graham Shine's just blown... time to change it!"
And for the indoor toilet.
"Be back in a second, need to go sit on the G for a while." (My nickname is G.)

They've already got a chemical
"Lawrencium"
Lawrence is my last name!
Oh wait...now I've said this, people will instantly know where I live. As well as every other Lawrence in a good 5 continents.
In science when we looked at Periodic Tables, People would laugh about what if a chemical was named after them (Johnsium, Jacksium, good times). I'd always laugh the last and point out I HAD one.
My mate was determined to make an Iron-based acid so he could have "Ironic Acid"
He's a funny guy

It would be the next species of dragon discovered by humans. Draconis Fightgarrus or something of the like. To be honest I don't think a lot of people who have species named after them are all that concerned with leaving behind a legacy because most of them are already famous. As for the discoverers having their discovery named after them? Who really remembers them unless they were an incredibly important historical figure?
To tell you the truth I have only one thing I'd really love to have myself named after. Not even named after just created with me in mind. That would be a character in a book by one of favorite authors. That would be a serious honor.

Being called Joe (Joey to my friends) I have hundreds of namesakes. Joey from friends, Sloppy Joes, Joey (baby kangaroo), Average Joe, etc etc etc.
Interestingly, my name itself is Joe Harper.
This is the name of a character mentioned in Van Morrison's "Joe Harper, Saturday Morning" with the lyrics 'I asked you for half a pound and you said, go see Joe Harper, Saturday Morning, kid".
Despite this being nothing to do with what VM was actually on about, one of my friends, upon discovering this has named me The Saturday Morning Kid (or SMK for short).
On topic: I'd really like some type of big cat to be named after me. Tigers and Lions are really, really cool.
