[Opinions] Re: WDYT of Dorothy?
in reply to a message by Aine
Brutal honesty following.
The dinosaur was my first thought, then the Wizard of Oz. Dorothy sounds like an old lady name to me. A bit of teasing potential in my opinion. I prefer Dorothea, it has more spunk and I can see it across all age groups. Less immediate teasing potential too.
Dorothy Grace is insipid.
I don't see the appeal of Dot. Dottie is like loony/crazy. Dorrie or Thea (and even Dora) would be more palatable.
