Dorothee

US Popularity Rank: 24479

Origin: Greek

Meaning: Gift of God

You can show baby Dorothee that there's no place like home when you carry your little darling across the doorstep. This feminine Greek name means "gift of God" and is a variant of the Anglicized Dorothy. With so many films, songs, and names getting a reboot in the 21st century, you can revive a stone-cold classic for baby. However, you must be wary when Dorothee asks about bluebirds and rainbows and how the happy little creatures fly beyond the colored arches.
