Donnie

US Popularity Rank: 3903

Origin: British

Meaning: Brown-haired chieftain

The name Donald has risen to prominence in recent years for reasons we don’t need to go into, but we think it’s about time its variations got some fuss. We particularly like the gender-neutral moniker Donnie, a British name meaning “brown-haired chieftain.” With a cute name like Donnie, your little cherub is destined to be a natural leader with a distinctive mane to boot! A significant number of stars share the name Donnie, including Mark Wahlberg’s brother Donnie Wahlberg, and renowned Hong Kong actor Donnie Yen.
