If you get a new idea, or suddenly realize something, it's quite OK to say "It just dawned on me" - (as in seeing the light.)
If a shawl suddenly falls on your shoulders out of nowhere you might say "it just donned on me" - but it would be a stretch.
If you are corrected by a professor from Oxford, you can say "He just donned on me."
If you have a nasty encounter with a senior Mafia person you can say, "Help me !!... I've been donned and I'm bleeding!"

The correct spelling is "dawned".

I've always seen "dawned". Like, the dawning of a new day, or idea....

It's "dawned" as in break of dawn. The phrase uses "dawn" in the context that an idea or thing just "dawned" on you or has been brought to light or to your attention. Example: "It just dawned on me that I can use my sister's red leather jacket to the quarter mile race."
"Donned" is not the correct word because "donning something is similar to "wearing" something. Example: "She donned a red leather jacket and torn black jeans during the quarter mile race."

Yahweh is transliterated from the Hebrew YHWH [a form of I am](they didn't have vowels at that time. A devout Jew would not say YHWH so they they tended to either skip over it or say "that word" or some such phrase. Later vowel points were added to Hebrew to help with pronouncing words. To keep the uninformed from saying YHWH it was vowel pointed with the vowels from the word el oheme (god). The resulting word would sound like ya hova. Thus Jehovah. A totally fabricated word that has worked its way into our language. In the Bible God is given many different names to emphasize his various attributes. Master in Divinity (6 sem hr Hebrew)

Dawned
Donned means to put on, especially in reference to clothing.
