Dollie is a gentle vintage form of Dolly, most often used as a pet name for Dorothy, which comes from the Greek Dorothea meaning "gift of God". This diminutive was widely used in the 19th century and occasionally given as a standalone name. English poet Dollie Radford (1858–1920) is a noted bearer, known for her literary circle that included Yeats and Morris. While the spelling Dollie is less common than Dolly today, the name shares a familiar charm with the iconic Dolly Parton, whose influence has kept the sound alive. In Scotland, Dollie has appeared sparingly on birth records, offering a quaint, affectionate choice for parents seeking a name with old-fashioned warmth.
