I have read recently that the top five names for boys in the U.S.A. are: Jacob, Ethan, Michael, Jayend and William. Donald does not appear anywhere in the top five, nor in the top ten list. As a Donald myself, I find that very disturbing. I believe that the current unpopularity of the name Donald is directly attributable to Mr. Trump of the same first name.

How inspiring is this gentleman to the mothers and fathers-to-be with his Donald hair and his Donald hair-brains? What the world needs is more Donald Ducks and Donald O’Conners and Don Drysdales and Don Juans and fewer Donald Trumps.

– Respectfully, Don Senecal
