NAMES AND NICKNAMES. 323 I see some young ladies present, and I am afraid I sliall be a little below even tlieir mark, but it is not perhaps so very long since they played with a doll. What is " doll " derived from ? There is a history in that. St Dorothea was one of the great Eoman Cath- olic saints who was made very much of in olden times, and many children were named after her. This brought the name well into the English language, and it was shortened into Dorothy and Dolly. Then it came to ...be applied to those little images which were originally called babies, and these were called dolls. When the Puritan reaction came it put out the name Dorothea, so we lost the words Dorothy and Dolly altogether, or very nearly, but we still retain the word doll. Of late years Dorothea has been revived, imported back again from Germany. I will give you another curious history of a name, which shows one how words grow up. Many are familiar with tlie word " Exchequer. " AVliat is the history of that word ?
