Dori is a girl's name of Greek, Old German, and Latin origin. This respelling is inspired by some truly gorgeous names overflowing with vintage flair.

Whichever root name speaks to baby's heritage, you can see it as a sign to lavish them with love. Of course, this versatile pick can also pay tribute to the loyal and forgetful Dory from the classic animated film Finding Nemo.
