[Opinions] Re: Dorothea
I love Dorothea. Beautiful meaning, elegant and interesting sound, underused. We had a Dorothea at the preschool I teach at and her name suited her beautifully; her nickname (which she usually went by) was 'Dot'. I loved it.

squeeYou know a little Dorothea! That is so great. One of my concerns is that the name is super literary to the point of vanishing. We've toyed with Dorothy as a first and Dorothea only in second place for that reason. How fun that there are some little Dorothea's popping up. Apparently, Dorothy is not my first name, as my mom was trying to avoid Dot. But I rather like Dot!
