What do you think about the name Donovan?

Question

My husband likes it because his father's name is Donald. I'm still thinking about if I like it or not. I'm wondering if I could have some oppinions.

Answer 1

Donovan is a very good name, Donald is so yesterday but Donovan is today. good luck.

Answer 2

I like it, I know someone named Donovan, he was jamaican, and apparantly in their culture, the name of the baby should derive from the mothers name, his mothers name was Donna, so she wanted either Donovan or Donald, so she went with Donovan, I think its a nice name. Sounds strong and smart, and its not as common.

Answer 3

I like it. I have a son with Donald for a middle name and he has been teased by other kids, due to his name.
Donivan or Donovan is better.

Answer 4

Absolutely LOVE IT!!! My little boy who would have turned 11 this years name was Donovan. He died of SIDS. His daddy/my husband just loved that name so much that I couldn't even give my .02. Good thing I liked it.

I think it is common enough that it isn't too unique. But not so common that there won't be 4 of them in your child's class.

Again, love it. In fact, have Donovan and his foot print tattoed on me :)

Answer 5

Wel I know people with this as a last name, so it seems kind of weird to me. BUt its ok, maybe it'd be better as a middle name?

Answer 6

Its a ok name, but i myself wouldn't pick it. There are so many cutie names out there you could go with. Maybe something more unique.
