Donald's birthday is officially recognized as 9 June 1934, the day when his debut film, "The Wise Little Hen", was released. However, in The Three Caballeros (1944), his birthday is given as simply "Friday the 13th," which is in reference to the bad luck that he experiences in almost all of his cartoon appearances. "Donald's Happy Birthday" gives his birthday as 13 March.

Donald's most famous personality trait is his uncontrollable temper. Due to Donald's jealousy towards Mickey's popularity causes Donald to be a type of villain in some occasions. Although Donald can be loud, rude and selfish he is a great friend and will do anything to help a friend. So far Donald's temper has landed him in many tight spots with Daisy in their relationship. Daisy is easily annoyed by Donald's constant temper problems. Donald also has an obsession over money, treasure, gold, etc. which he gets from his Uncle Scrooge. Donald usually chooses riches over friends until someone talks him out of it. Donald can realize he does not have the best luck. Usually when Donald is going head to head with an opponent like a beaver or gopher Donald will get the blame for the destruction they have caused.

According to the cartoon "Donald Gets Drafted" (1942), Donald's full name is Donald Fauntleroy Duck. This appears to be a reference to his sailor hat, which was a common accessory for "Little Lord Fauntleroy" suits. This middle name is repeated in the Quack Pack episode "All Hands on Duck".

According to Leonard Maltin in his introduction to The Chronological Donald - Volume 1, Donald was created by Walt Disney when he heard Clarence Nash doing his "duck" voice while reciting "Mary Had a Little Lamb." Mickey Mouse had lost some of his edge since becoming a role model for children and Disney wanted a character that could portray some of the more negative character traits he could no longer bestow on Mickey.
