Not that I'm aware of. I don't know much about other languages, but the name Donna was derived from the Italian language and means "lady". It may also be used as a feminine form of Donald, which means "ruler of the world" in Gaelic. Dona is merely a variant spelling of Donna.

Grant is Norman French for "grand, large", and was originally a Scottish surname.
