[Opinions] Just ducky! ;)
in reply to a message by Norah Namenerd
Can't help it; the duck is always the first to come to mind. Despite this, I still think Donald a solid, respectable name...albeit one I'll never be in love with.
Having said that, I've just reminded myself of swooning over Donny Osmond, and his name is Donald. Can I swoon over Donald if I picture Donny? Hmmm....nope, it's just not happening.
For honoring and use as a middle name, I don't see any reason to change Donald. If I absolutely had to change it, I do consider choosing a name of the same meaning to be a legitimate form of honoring.
Brydon...creative attempt but doesn't properly honor Donald, in my opinion. It probably *would* fit right in with the trends but, please no.

First real actor that pops into my head is Don Knots. More likely to make me chuckle than swoon.
