    The character Donald Duck came about after Walt Disney heard Clarence Nash reciting “Mary Had a Little Lamb” in his “duck” voice, and Nash went on to voice Donald until 1984. Tony Anselmo started voicing Donald in 1985 and is still Donald’s voice as of 2018. Donald’s full name is Donald Fauntleroy Duck, and he is known for his sometimes temperamental personality. He is many times associated with his nephews Huey, Louie, and Dewey, and his girlfriend Daisy.

    In a 1941 biography of Donald Duck, Walt Disney's The Life of Donald Duck, it says that Donald was born on a Friday the 13th. The 1949 short film "Donald's Happy Birthday" celebrates his birthday on March 13. The license plate of his car is the number 313, likely a reference to his birthday.

    I always preferred Daffy Duck and his anarchism, Donald Duck (like all those Disney characters) was too pure and wholesome.
