I love them both. DS was going to be Theodora if he was a girl. I love the NN Teddie

Dorothy.

I love both but would definitely choose Theodora

I have a Theodora, shortened to Dora.

I love it but then I'm very biased

Why comment? it's going to be one of them. They're close to my heart and for a middle name.

I'm sorry there both granny names

Pepsipig · 06/09/2017 14:50

100% Theodora. Dorothea makes me think diarrhoea, sorry

salsamad · 06/09/2017 14:49

Although I'm not too keen on either I would choose Dorothea but only because it can be shortened to Thea or Dot or Dottie. Theodora sounds like a hatsnd it can be shortened to Dora - as in Dora the Explorer the children's TV character.
