"Rakudo".  It was introduced as supposedly meaning "perl6 on parrot,
as opposed to pugs and so on", now it's just a synonym for "Perl 6".

Not really, it's just that the Rakudo project now supports multiple
compiler backends- Parrot, JVM, and MoarVM- and is the most complete
implementation now. I don't think there are any other currently active
perl6 projects, though someone did write the Perl 6 compiler list about
creating a C-based interpreter last month, so who knows.
