The Lothario Family is a premade family first found in The Sims 2. The last living member of this family is the Pleasantview womanizer, Don Lothario, who is largely involved in the Pleasantview love web. Don Lothario was Don Baxter in an early preview of the game, with the same appearance and still chasing after Dina. The difference was he was married and had an infant son, and lived in a sprawling estate with a large pool.
Through a teleporter mishap, Don spent an unspecified amount of time in Riverview.
His ancestors appear to be just like him, as some of them are Romance Sims, and also appear to have an Italian heritage.
Don's house depicts a 1990s bachelor's condo, with pictures of girls, a hot tub and a bar. The brick walls on the first floor give the feeling of a '90s condo, mainly.
Onomatology
Lothario: "A man who obsessively seduces and deceives women" or "a man who behaves selfishly in his WooHoo relationships with women". Lothario is also a term for any man who behaves in a way that he does. The Italian name seems fitting, seeing as Don is of Italian descent. Also, the Lothario theme fits very well.
Don Lothario: A "Don Juan" is basically a synonym for Lothario. Also, Donald (which Don is a common nickname for) means "ruler of the world." Don Lothario's name seems to be very fitting of him.
Nicolo Lothario (Don's father): Italian, meaning "Victory of the People".
Adriana Lothario (Don's mother): Is an Italian name, derived from Hadria, a town in northern Italy. The town name might in turn possibly stem from an old Indo-European word "adur" meaning water or sea. Likely Maxis just thought it sounded nice.
Carmelo Lothario (Don's paternal grandfather): Spanish and Italian masculine form of Carmel, meaning garden and named after Mt. Carmel, mentioned in the Old Testament.
Mama Lothario (Don's paternal grandmother): Slang for an attractive woman. May also refer to the idea she is the mother or "mama" of Don's father.
Primo Fiorello (Don's maternal grandfather): Italian name meaning "first." Also literally means "Cousin" in Spanish.
Isabella Fiorello (Don's maternal grandmother): Italian form of Isabel or Elizabeth, in turn from Hebrew Elisheba, meaning "My God Is An Oath". Might also be tongue-in-cheek "is a beauty" in this case as per the meaning of Bella.
