It's a bit extreme perhaps, but I wonder whether it's 'apple'. I'm thinking that one word for spotted is 'dappled' and 'D' stands for 500 in Roman numerals. Taking both D's - ie totalling 1000 - away from 'dappled' gives you 'apple'. What do you reckon?

If it's not the right answer it deserves to be.
