I love Dorothea!!! I tend to like long girl names with a lot of nickname options so if the theoretical kid doesn't feel like the name suits them, they have a whole bunch of other options to choose from. With Dorothea, my initial go-to would be Thea, but I also like a lot of the other nicknames like Dora, Dot, and Dottie.

If I ever have a girl I plan on naming her Dorothea Mae to honor my mom (MN Dorothy) and my grandma (MN Mae).

Other combos I like:
Dorothea June
Dorothea Wren
Dorothea Lily
Dorothea Belle
Dorothea Vivian
Dorothea Rose
Dorothea Willow
Dorothea Gray

Or if you want to lean into the long names:
Dorothea Gwendolyn
Dorothea Guinevere
Dorothea Juliette
Dorothea Madeleine
Dorothea Katharine
Dorothea Rosalind
Dorothea Juniper
Dorothea Isabeau
