Line 60:
*'''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 names seem fitting, seeing as Don probably has a Spanish or Italian descent. Also, the Lothario theme still holds true for one or two of the names.
*'''[[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 to him.
*'''[[Nicolo Lothario]]''' (Don's father): Means "Victory of the People".
Line 68:
*'''[[Carmelo Lothario]]''' (Don's paternal grandfather):
*'''[[Mama Lothario]]''' (Don's paternal grandmother): Slang for an attractive woman. Could also mean mama, as in a child's biological female parent.
*'''Fiorello''': "Fiorella" is Italian for "small flower". Also Fiorello was a name of a musical in 1959. Again the Italian/Spanish descent holds true. Notice Fiorella ends in an "a". Maxis probably wanted the name to be more masculine, changing the "a" to an "o".
*'''[[Primo Fiorello]]''' (Don's maternal grandfather): Italian
*'''[[Isabella Fiorello]]''' (Don's maternal grandmother): Latinate form of Elizabeth
