Here is one possible solution for the problem with named do loops:

The loop-name should always preceed the parenthesized expression(s)

while loop_name (expression)
	statement;

which means this for do:

do
	statement;
while loop_name (expression);

The loop name at the end does not seem obvious enough but that's where
the expression has always been anyway.

How about these new forms?

do while (expression)
	statement;

do while loop_name (expression)
	statement;

Its probably more logical than the current syntax. It is
grammatically unambiguous and clean. It makes do loops easier to
read whether they are named or not - especially for long do loops.
But is it worth changing the language??
