Dora or Dorothea?

Or did you want something more different?

2pt4WiseMen · 17/12/2008 09:05

No idea officially, but I'd guess at anything with the 'do' in it...

How about..

Isadora
Dora

Dolores

flippityjibbet · 17/12/2008 09:08

something a wee bit different but not too un-heard-of..

I like isadora!

TheOtherMaryPoppinsJingles · 17/12/2008 09:35

ok I didn't read that can't think of anything else not already mentioned

deckthegirlandboywithholly · 17/12/2008 09:36

Anything wrong with Dorothy??

It's my middle name!

It's also my mum's name, but she very rarely gets called Dolly.......Dad calls her Dot, much to her disgust!

MadreInglese · 17/12/2008 09:38

Madeleine?

wenceslasmyeducation · 17/12/2008 09:40

Isadora is beautiful, but I can't see that anyone would shorten that to Dolly.

thisisyesterday · 17/12/2008 09:41

just call her Dolly.

Umlellala · 17/12/2008 09:47

well, really you can call her what you like, no-one has to know why. So you could name her Isadora and call/nickname her Fluffy, if you want.
