Donathor (something like that)

Has anyone noticed how close *Donathor*, in the first story, is to *Denethor* in J.R.R. Tolkien's LORD OF THE RINGS? I really like all her other books, but this name annoyed me to no end, when I first read THE DOOR IN THE HEDGE, oh, a couple of years ago. By the way, has anyone here read Tolkien's LORD OF THE RINGS? It's beyond words. Actually, Robin's books were sort of a springboard to my interest in the LoR. They are both very different author's with different styles, but I love their books in equally, in different ways.
