      The name Dovie is of American origin, although its precise meaning remains unknown. Despite the lack of clarity regarding its etymology, Dovie has garnered a notable presence throughout history and modern-day usage. The name holds a distinctively American character, likely due to its roots in the United States.

      Throughout the annals of history, instances of the name Dovie are sparsely found. However, it is notable that its usage became more frequent during the late 19th and early 20th centuries in America.
