Morphology
donee = donor (transparent) = don + ee
Formed by the regular recipient nominalizer '-ee' attached to the donation root (as in 'donor'/'donation'), so learners familiar with 'donor' or 'donation' can infer 'donee' = recipient.
Etymology
Donee comes from the root don, which means 'give' and appears in words like donate and donor. The ending -ee shows the person who 'receives', as in employee or attendee, so a donee is the person who 'receives' a gift or money.
