Named for the head of the Genoan family prominent in Schiller’s {see planet  (3079)} tragedy Die Verschwörung des Fiesco zu Genua. In combination with (2176) Donar, the name suggests the repeated curse of Giannettino Doria (nephew of Andrea) against the Republican conspirators; “Donner und Doria” is now used as an exclamation of dismay. (M 8151) _ _.
