Dover

British place-name

Dover Origin and Meaning

The name Dover is a boy's name of British origin.

Two-syllable place-names are stylish, and this one is attached to a British city noted for its white chalk cliffs, but there are a couple of minuses: associated with the fish, Dover sole, and also rhymes with the doggy Rover.
