Describe Dorothy Gale in 50 words or more.

Dorothy's name is a loosely based version of "Theodore" which means "Gift of the Gods". "Dorothy", therefore, as a female companion to Theodore would translate to "Goddess of Gifts". The Wonderful Wizard of Oz was written in 1900, so Dorothy was born before the twentieth century, in the late 1800s. In Baum's Oz series it states she was on June 10th. Coincidently, she shares her birthday with her iconic 1939 movie musical counterpart portrayed by Judy Garland. Like Garland, her Zodiac sign is Gemini. Surprisingly, her last name "Gale" isn't revealed in Baum's original novel. Infact, it was not mentioned until the 1902 stage version of the story Baum created a few years after the book's publication and subsequent success; "My name is Dorothy Gale. I'm one of the Kansas Gales. " To which the Scarecrow replies, "Well, that explains your breezy manner. " In the later Oz books, Baum kept the last name but mercifully spared his readers the pun.
