I think you were right the first time, Lance. Donna's name was given in TT#22 I believe, which came out in '69. Aqualad's name, Garth, wasn't revealed until much later.

UM, ok, even though I think it should be Jim's question because I changed my answer. Oh, and I don't think we found out that Donna's given name was really Donna until the "Who is Donna Troy" story - but I could be mistaken. Here we go...
Who was the first person to try to be a Teen Titan, only to be rejected?

OK let me think of a good question and I'll post it tomorrow. (My usual internet access is unavailable and I am on the Boston Public library's 15 minute access)

OK Name all the Titans who had a villian for a parent.
I am thinking of three of which there is no question and three in which ret-conning effects the answer.

Gar Logan's adoptive father, Steve Dayton, was a villainous Mento, but I'm not sure that counts.
Jericho's and Rose Wilson's (Ravager's) father is the Terminator, of course. And Raven's the daughter of Trigon.
Joker's Daughter, Duela Dent, was originally "revealed" to be Two-Face's daughter; then later announced it was impossible; then retconned into perhaps being Wildebeest's daughter; now nobody knows for sure, except that she IS the daughter of some villain or other.
Bart (Impulse, Kid Flash) Allen is the son of Don Allen, one half of the Legion's onetime foes the Tornado Twins. But they weren't really villainous.
And finally, Toni (Argent) Monetti is the daughter of a wealthy drug dealer. Not a supervillain, but definitely a bad guy nonetheless.
P.S.: Whoops, almost forgot! The late Superboy was the genetic offspring/clone of Lex Luthor as well as Superman.

Calybos, you got the three that I said were no question (Jerico, Ravager, & Raven)
You are right about Duela Dent, but not the other ret-con ones. I knew Argent was the daughter of a drug dealer, but like you I don't count that as a villian (in comic book terms) Nor would Bart's father count as a villian (or even a foe really) And I am not counting his mother who is supposed to be a member of the Reverse Flash family.
I would say that Mento was not so much villianous as affected by his helmet (Although the same can be said about Two-Face not being villianous but suffering from mental problems)
I also forgot about Kon-el.
So there are two more ret-con effected characters that I am thinking about. Does anyone want to guess?
In regaards to the question/game, Calybos did answer the lion share and has the next question.

I'll take a stab at it and guess the final two are Lilith (mother Thia of the Titans of Myth) and Baby Wildebeast? A third possibility (hedging my bets ) is Golden Eagle (son of a Thangarian renegade)

Golden Eagle is the other I was thinking of. Lilith & Baby Wilderbeest are not the ones I was thinking. And wasn't Baby Wilderbeest a clone with no identified genetic parentage?
Shall I say who the last one is?

Talk about a group of kids from disfunctional families! Holy Moly! No wonder they get into so much trouble and wind up getting themselves killed!

I really hated the ret-con on Wally's parents because I really loved the scene with his parents in the "Day in the Life of..." issue.
