my name..
I have been trying to figure out what my name stood for. My father is from Alabama, his name Joe Camble i just recently was told. i was named after a african american women named Doshie. I dont know anything else really about that side of my family to give more information. If anyone finds out the meaning of it, please let me know. It took me almost all my life just to apreciate how rare my name is, now to finally hear someone else w/it is wonderful. I met a couple in Florida who said there sister's name was the same n spelled the same..she was from Germany.

I would guess that this was originally a short form of a name like Theodosia or Eudocia.
