Help[Opinions] Re: Theodora or Dorothea?
in reply to a message by humblebee
This might come down to sound. When I say them, Theodora has a definite door in it, but the first o in Dorothea is short and the second is a schwa.
I knew a Dorothea at school who was never known by any nn at all; and now I know a Theodora who hates it with a passion and is universally known as Theo.
On balance, then, it's Dorothea for me.
