Dolly

Dolly is a girl’s name that is English in origin. Originally a nickname of the feminine names Dolores and Dorothy, Dolly has become a given name in its own right. In-tune with its emotions, Dolly inherits the meanings "emotion" and "sorrowful" from Dolores. Yet, it is charmingly retro while inspiring such legendary women as singer-songwriter Dolly Parton and First Lady Dolley Madison. If that didn’t sell you on the name, then its meaning, “gift of God” from Dorothy certainly will, as baby is truly the greatest gift of all!
