[Opinions] Donata
Lately, I've fallen in love with this name. However, it's also the real name of Lindsay Lohan's annoying mother (Dina's just her nickname). Do you think it's a nice name or do you think it's too associated with Dina Lohan?

I love Donato, Donata is a bit harsh-sounding, though. In Italy, Donatella is generally used as a female form of Donato.
It's not as if Lindsay Lohan's mother is that well known, so honestly I don't think this association would be a problem.

I didn't know Lindsay's mom's name, not that I really went looking for such information. I like Donata. It's uncommon, yet pretty.

I never knew her real name was Donata...so it doesn't make me think of her. It actually makes me think of Doritos, so therefore...I don't really like it.

Haha, the donut thing was my first thought also, my second thought was of a mafia girlfriend or a Jersey girl.

I don't know how Donata could be associated with Mrs. Lohan if she goes by Dina. Is her real name truly common knowledge? Nevertheless, I agree with RoxStar that it makes me think of donuts. Mmm, donuts...

I'd prefer Donatienne, but I prefer the male form: Donatien.

I've never even heard of Dina LohanSeriously, very few people know much about celebrities, let alone their family members. I wouldn't be concerned about that at all. Though I agree with RoxStar. I thought of doughnuts when I saw the name. I also thought of Donatelo, the artist/teenage mutant ninja turtle.

my first thought was doughnutsI didn't know Dina Lohan's real name was Donata until just this moment. So no, I don't think of her at all. I just think of doughnuts.

I don't know why Lindsay Lohan's mom calls herself Dina. Maybe she thought it was prettier, or maybe people were mispronouncing (or making fun of) her name.

It makes me think of doughnuts. I've never seen Dina Lohan, so there's no association for me. It just makes me think of doughnuts.

It sounds like "donut". I really don't care for it.

I don't associate it with Lindsay Lohan at all, but I don't really like it. I think because the 'don' part reminds me of Donna, which I hate.

I don't like it.But I have never heard Lindsay Lohan's mother's name before, so that doesn't matter at all.It makes me think of Donata from Final Fantasy X, who bothered me. That's part of the reason I don't like it. The other part is because I don't like the sound. I don't like Donna, Donald, etc. either.
