Your question is not well-formed.  How are you trying to make the hole?  Are you 
using the contributed mdrun_make_hole software?  If so, be aware that it is 
designed for an antiquated version of Gromacs (3.1.4).  If your goal is to 
incorporate a membrane protein, there are a number of more modern ways to go 
about it (see the wiki and posts within the list archives).

If you do not know what DMPC is, and you are trying to use it, you should stop 
and read some literature before blindly attempting a project.  There are also 
numerous simulation papers that label phospholipids within the introduction or 
methods sections, if you are curious about atom nomenclature.
