Dory

I know someone who's baby girl has this name.  I can't get past the "goofy blue fish" association. 

WDYT?

    Impossible for me not to think of Finding Nemo.

    I knew a girl in high school with this name, so it's just another name for me.  She spelled it Dori though.

    We had a wonderful NICU nurse named Dory, so for me, it has sentimental value. When I first met her all I could think of was Finding Nemo (she was clearly born before it came out). Even when associated with the movie, I think it's a cute name. I liked the character, she made me laugh.

    "Es kah pay.  Hey!  It's spelled just like escape!"  I named my Ford Escape after her because of this line.

    And yes.  Dory for a fishes name is fine.  Not for a little girl and now she will hear all the Finding Nemo quotes all her life.  What are some parents thinking?

    Finding Nemo was my first thought.  It could be cute as a nickname though.

    It's kind of cute as a NN for Doris. But Dora would have been much better.

    When I taugh Pre-K I had a little girl in my class named Dory. She was named after her grandma on her fathers side. It's of Greek origin. I'm a sucker for family names.

    I immediately thought of Dory Funk and Dory Funk, Jr., so I associate Dory with males...But... I'm probably the only one.

    I forgot about Finding Nemo until I started reading the responses!
