Dorreen offers a slight variation in spelling from the classic Doreen. This feminine moniker has a few possible root origins, including Greek, Egyptian, and Irish. First and foremost, Dorreen comes from Dora, which is a diminutive of names like Dorothy, Isidora, or Theodora. As such, you get the meaning “gift of God” or “gift of the Gods,” from the elements doron, meaning “gift,” and theos, meaning “God.” Alternatively, Dorreen could be connected to the Irish Doireann, offering up the definitions “moody” or “sullen.” While, of course, your little one might certainly have their days of woe, their presence will undoubtedly still be one of the greatest gifts you receive in your life.
