Donovon is a masculine name that appears to be a spelling variation of Donovan, which originated as an Irish surname derived from the Gaelic "Ó Donndubháin," meaning "descendant of Donndubhán." The Gaelic elements "donn" (brown) and "dubh" (dark) combine to form a name meaning "dark brown-haired chieftain." This variation with an 'o' in the final syllable creates a subtle distinction while maintaining the recognizable sound. Donovon carries an Irish-American heritage feeling, bolstered by associations with the folk singer Donovan Leitch who popularized the name in the 1960s. While less common than the standard spelling, Donovon appeals to parents seeking a name with Celtic roots, a strong masculine sound, and a slightly unconventional spelling that still feels familiar.
