Lee McAvoy

Lee McAvoy was at the Library during the attack of the Vashta Nerada in the 51st century. He was saved, like all the others, by being uploaded to the hard drive of the computer.

At some point he was introduced to the newly downloaded Donna Noble, by Doctor Moon. They fell in love and got married, having a simulated son Josh and simulated daughter Ella.

Lee and Donna lost each other while being rescued from the computer, Donna's last words to him being a promise that she would one day find him. Donna was led to believe that Lee wasn't a real human. It turned out that he was a human after all, but since he had a stuttering problem, he couldn't call out to her when she left with the Tenth Doctor.

"Lee" was apparently not his real name, as Donna determined that no one with that name was in the Library when the Vashta Nerada attacked. (TV: Forest of the Dead)

Behind the scenes
In the DVD writer commentary on Forest of the Dead, Russell T Davies and Steven Moffat revealed that the original draft of the script would have revealed in his final scene that Lee was in actuality a woman in the real world. This would have made Donna the first on-screen companion to enter into a homosexual marriage, albeit unwittingly on her end. In the end, Bill Potts, six seasons later, became the first TV companion to pursue a lesbian relationship on-screen, albeit one that did not involve a formal wedding.

Unrelatedly, on the commentary of The End of Time, Russell T Davies noted that the writers toyed with the idea of bringing Lee back as Donna's fiancé, but gave up because it "wouldn't really have made sense" in terms of the timeline.
