* Dorothea *

Thoughts on the name and potencial nn please!

I like it a lot.

Maybe
[name_f]Dottie[/name_f]
[name_f]Dot[/name_f]
[name_f]Dora[/name_f]
[name_f]Thea[/name_f]
[name_f]Deedee[/name_f]

I think it’s a great name. For NNs, I’ll add [name_f]Dotty[/name_f], [name_u]Dory[/name_u], [name_m]Ory[/name_m], [name_u]Ori[/name_u] & [name_f]Ora[/name_f].

I like it, and I absolutely love nn [name_f]Dolly[/name_f] for it!

Dorothea is lovely. I don’t feel the same about [name_f]Dorothy[/name_f], but the thea ending changes it for me.

It is a strong, lyrical name with wonderful nn potential.

I had an amazing pianist Great Aunt [name_f]Dorothy[/name_f] who went by [name_f]Dot[/name_f]. After discovering [name_f]Dot[/name_f] on the Miss [name_f]Phryne[/name_f] [name_m]Fisher[/name_m] mysteries, I was even more keen on [name_f]Dot[/name_f]. And [name_f]Dottie[/name_f] is cute too.

Then of course there’s [name_f]Thea[/name_f] and [name_f]Dido[/name_f] and [name_f]Dodo[/name_f] and [name_f]Dora[/name_f].

Great name!

Hi there.

Dorothea is lovely. It’s has great vintage charm. It’s slightly clunky, but in a cute quirky way honestly. It’s feminine, smart, unique but fairly simple. I like the nn [name_f]Thea[/name_f], but I love the nn [name_f]Daisy[/name_f]!

Hope this helps. :slight_smile:

I like the name its cute and classic. Nickname suggest [name_m]Roddy[/name_m].

Dorothea is strong, literary and sweet

I love it! Nicknames [name_f]Dot[/name_f], [name_f]Dottie[/name_f] and [name_f]Thea[/name_f] are my faves!

Very cute & classic!

I like the nicknames [name_f]Dotty[/name_f]/Dottie, [name_f]Dot[/name_f], [name_f]Thea[/name_f] & [name_f]Dora[/name_f]!

It’s all right. Not really my style.

Nicknames: [name_f]Dot[/name_f]/Dotty, [name_f]Thea[/name_f], [name_f]Tia[/name_f], [name_u]Dory[/name_u], Tee, Dor

I love [name_f]Dorothea[/name_f].

What about …
[name_f]Dorothea[/name_f] [name_f]Audrey[/name_f]
[name_f]Dorothea[/name_f] [name_u]Eden[/name_u]
[name_f]Dorothea[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]
[name_f]Dorothea[/name_f] [name_f]Meghan[/name_f]
[name_f]Dorothea[/name_f] [name_f]Melody[/name_f]
[name_f]Dorothea[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]
[name_f]Dorothea[/name_f] [name_u]Taylor[/name_u]
[name_f]Dorothea[/name_f] [name_f]Unity[/name_f]

I think it’s very pretty! [name_f]Dottie[/name_f], [name_f]Dot[/name_f], [name_f]Dodie[/name_f], [name_f]Dodo[/name_f], and [name_f]Thea[/name_f] come to mind.

Ugh I love any variation of this name. [name_f]Dorothy[/name_f] has been on my favorites list for a while and I LOVE the NM [name_f]Dottie[/name_f] and [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] for it. Right now I have it paired with the MN [name_f]Jane[/name_f].
Because of [name_f]Dorothea[/name_f], I think [name_f]Thea[/name_f] would be an adorable NM or even [name_u]Teddy[/name_u] if you wanted to take the name in a more spunky direction.
I think [name_f]Dorothea[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u] would be simply precious!
