So I'm watching this anime a couple of days ago and one of the characters were
describing a group of people. He ended his description with "`GIGN to iu na no
inu`". The subtitle says that meant: " **Those dogs of the GIGN** ". So I'm
wondering is "`GIGN no inu`" or "`GIGN de inu`" wrong? I would think they all
mean the same thing.

*GIGN = military police unit

question
translation particles
Why "to iu na no" instead of "de" or "no"?
GIGNと言う名の犬: a (or those) dog(s) by the name of GIGN. na is name.
