Name Meaning
English: (i) nickname from an unrecorded Middle English * dolling, * douling, * dulling ‘dull fellow’. Compare Doll and Dollard . Post-medieval examples of the name may also have arisen from a late assimilation of rl to ll in Dorling, a variant of Darling : Samuel Dorling, 1770, is identical with Samuel Dolling, 1782, in Parish Registers (West Stow, Suffolk). Here the pronunciation of the first syllable of Dolling may alternatively be with a short o like that in modern doll.
