Donovan as a given name
editI just heard Donovan the musician describe how his father came upon choosing the name Donovan for his son, and how the guy from the register told him that was a last name and he couldn't use that, but was eventually convinced. If you look at the list of people with Donovan as a given name, all but one were born after the success of Donovan the singer. So it looks like the name was really popularized by him.
