Meaning: Its source is domina, a Latin name meaning "Lady of the house."
Popularity: The name Donya ranked 2835th in popularity for females of all ages in a sample of the 1990 US Census.
Though this name appears on the 1990 U.S. Census lists, it is used by only a small percentage of the general population.
Narrative: This name comes to English through an identical Italian word (meaning ''lady'') used as a title of respect rather than a personal name.
Among the Scots it is regarded as a feminine form of Donald.

In Kenya Donya in the Masai language means a hill or a mountain. Whether this was the particular meaning meant for your name when you were named I would not know?
