Okay GAMERS. Fact: "Donkey Kong" has always been called "Donkey Kong" There was never a confusion in translation from Monkey Kong to Donkey Kong. We mean really? You invent a game, name it, get paid for it, and they screw up your title? Are you going to let that happen? It is a long story that goes into the name not really all that interesting. But those of you that think it was supposed to be Monkey Kong do the research.
