Origin: Greek

Meaning: Gazelle

A name that rolls off the tongue and lands sweetly in the ear, Dorcie is a girl's name of Greek origin, meaning "gazelle." In the wild, the gazelle needs to be on high alert at all times due to the outright jealousy of the other animals. These beautiful fawn-colored creatures can reach speeds of up to 100km/hr, unfortunately only encouraging their desert-dwelling nemeses to race after them. Luckily, your little one can keep hold of the beauty of the gazelle without living in perpetual fear of an impromptu game of chasing.
