[Opinions] Dorothea
in reply to a message by EMB
I don't love Dora though I do love Theodora even if sometimes the dora part bothers me. It is also how I feel about the name Isidora/ Isadora. I love them but the dora part pokes at me sometimes.I prefer Thea as a nn to Theo but I love both nn's. Also Thea can be used as a nn for Theodora even if Theo feels slightly more natural.I think Dottie and Dot are cute nn's for Dorothea and they don't really work for Theodora.Dorothea and Dorothy are also family names for me. My great grandma Ella who I knew well was Ella Frieda and her mother was Maria Dorothea. Dorothy was my husband's grandmother's name.So I guess I am barely much help since I love them both.
