Doshie is a first name for girls.
Recently, the name Doshie has been given only a handful of times a year and is therefore particularly rare, at least in the US. In recent years, not even one girl in 100,000 has been named Doshie. That means that a girl named Doshie is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name her whole life. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Doshie.
Is the name Doshie a dinosaur? We would say: It's classic! Parents chose this name most often in 1884 – at that time, it landed at position 609 with 11 newborn girls receiving this special first name. This was the last peak in a world without airplanes, computers, rock music, or even television. Because Doshie is both classic and fancy at the same time, people didn't always think to give their child this unusual name. So, if your name is Doshie, feel classic and not old-fashioned, because after all, your name is what makes you stand out these days!
In years where the graph has no value, the name Doshie was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

The first name Doshie is a true rarity among all women and girls currently living in the United States – only 38 Americans in total bear this name. And these 38 women are located in only five states: Alabama, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina and Texas (it should be noted that the official statistics provide the data per state only if there are at least 5 women with this name in the state. So, if your name is Doshie and you live outside the states marked on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics). The state with the most girls and women named Doshie in relation to it’s female population is Kentucky. And yet even there, only one in 267,662 women would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Doshie.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter D is quite common as an initial letter for girls' names. To be precise, 5.6% of all girls' names in the US begin with this letter. The most common first letters of girls' names, by the way, are A, S and M.
With six letters, the name Doshie is of average length. In fact, 28% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly six letters. 24% of all first names are shorter, while 48% have seven letters or more. On average, first names in the US (not counting hyphenated names) are 6.5 letters long. There are no significant differences between boys' and girls' names.
Therefore: As 5.6% of all girls' names start with D, this initial letter occurs much more often than all 26 letters on average. And maybe interesting to know: of all the names that begin with a D, Dorothy is the most common.
If your name is Doshie and someone asks after your name, you can of course just tell them what it is. But sometimes that isn't so easy - what if it's too loud, and you don't understand them well? Or what if the other person is so far away that you can see them but not hear them? In these situations, you can communicate your name in so many other ways: you call spell it, sign it, or even use a flag to wave it...
So that everyone really understands you when you have to spell the name Doshie, you can simply say:
Dinosaur
