Help[Opinions] Re: Dora
in reply to a message by Orsino
I totally think of Dora the Explorer. =\ And marketing of DtE shows no signs of slowing down, that I can see. To me that is a bad sign and would turn me off Dora as a babyname.
I like Eudora and Medora more than Dora as a full name, anyway. If not for Nick Jr, I'd like Dora a lot more. I like Dorie as well. And Doris - I'm looking forward to its comeback, although I'm pretty sure it's still in the frumpy gray stage, and hasn't reached powdery antique sweetness yet.
Off the top of my head - certain middle initials do not work well after Dora IMO, because of the way they connect with it (rar, rum, rat, ruck, oral, rap, rug):
Dora Demetria
Dora Jane
Dora June
Dora Dominique
Dora Celeste
Dora Virginia
Dora Ivette
