when you use Don and Doña they need to be followed by the first name. It is used when you already know a person. But If its a strange person It is more common to say "Señor" "Señora" "Caballero" "Dama". When you use "Señor" "Señora" It is followed by the last name. It is only for people who are older than you. Sometimes even when they are single It is usual to say "Don" "Doña".

DON and DOÑA are words that come from ancient latin "dominus" and "domina". dominus means "Lord" and it was used by the servants when thay talked to their lord. Nowadays DON and DOÑA are used in formal language to say "Mr" and "Mrs"
