My first name is Doroteo. Its a name of Spanish origin. Tough one to have growing up in Texas. That's why my nickname is Mitch.
Looked it up on the link and its of Greek origin, cool.
DOROTHEA
Gender: Feminine
Usage: German, Dutch, Danish, Norwegian, English, Late Greek
Other Scripts: Δωροθεα (Ancient Greek)
Pronounced: do-ro-TE-ah (German), dor-ə-THEE-ə (English) [key]
Feminine form of the Late Greek name Δωροθεος (Dorotheos), which meant "gift of God" from Greek δωρον (doron) "gift" and θεος (theos) "god". Dorothea was the name of two early saints, notably the 4th-century martyr Dorothea of Caesarea. It was also borne by the 13th-century Saint Dorothea of Montau, who was the patron saint of Prussia.
