Gorgeous or horrible.

I say Dooolsee. But is that too foreign!? Is it really just DullSee.

I knew a Spanish Dulcie, hence my weird 'hearingitinmyhead' Doolsy.

Just offering it up. I thought the name deserved a thread

I had a great great aunt Dulcie. Pronounced "Dullsee". She was fairly posh & lived in Kenya (pronounced "Keenya" ).

She was quite quite bonkers I think. Her youngest sister is still alive and is quite a character - she still does yoga age 91 and smokes like a chimney.

It's a nice name. It comes from the Latin for "sweet".
