WHAT DOES DONALD MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Donald

The masculine given name Donald is a version of the Scottish Gaelic name Domhnall, historically the standard Anglicization of the name in Scotland. The name is ultimately derived from the Old Celtic world elements dubno and val. The final -d on Donald is partly derived from a misinterpretation of the Gaelic pronunciation by English-speakers, and partly associated with the spelling of similar sounding Germanic-language names, such as Ronald. A short form of Donald is Don. Pet forms of Donald include Donnie, Donny, and Dolly. The feminine given name Donella is derived from Donald. Donald has numerous other Celtic-language cognates: Irish Dónal, Old Irish Domnall, Welsh Dyfnwal, Old Welsh Dumngual, Cumbric Dumngual, and Common Celtic *Dumno-ualos. Although the feminine given name Donna is sometimes used as a feminine form of Donald, the names are not etymologically related.

Famous quotes and sentences with the word Donald.
1
Utkarsh Ambudkar
It just so happened that my agent called and said, 'There's this movie 'Pitch Perfect.' Here are the sides.' I think I originally read for Bumper, because Donald didn't have much in the script, so I read all Bumper's lines. I beatboxed for them, because that's what my character was supposed to do. And then I was like, 'By the way, I rap.'

When I was growing up in Chicago, my family and I used to go to a local chain, Hackney's, for burgers and their French fried onion loaf.
