HelpDorian
in reply to a message by Karenina
What about Dorianne? ugh no that's terrible.
I can see the appeal of Dorian for a girl. I really can. It is rich and round and jewel-bright. In fact I would even find it amazingly cool if I met a girl Dorian. BUT, only if she was named after Dorian Gray. If it was given because her parents just think its cool, I would be a bit disappointed. But if her mother, say, read The Picture of Dorian Gray and adored it and wanted to name her child after it no matter its gender, I would find that really rad.
Ok now I am diggin' girl Dorian. I like it much better than girl Darian (like from Wall Street).
For some reason I only think girl Dorian should have outlandish middle names that show the ecclectic and offbeat nature of her parents. So something like Dorian Ishbel Calpurnia, or Dorian Lizbeth Gwenfrewi (yes also she needs three names, ok?)

How about Dori-Anne as a more girly spelling? I have to say I'd prefer that.
