dorim

Dorim is a term that may refer to multiple topics, largely in Korean-language contexts. In Korea, dorim (도림) is commonly used as a personal name and as a place name. As a given name, its meaning depends on the hanja characters selected or on native Korean interpretation, and it can be used for any gender depending on naming conventions. As a toponym, dorim appears in the names of various villages or districts within Korean administrative divisions; the exact locations and status vary by region and over time.

Beyond Korea, dorim may appear as a transliteration of non-Korean names or terms, with its meaning dependent on the source language and spelling. In scholarly or encyclopedic usage, dorim is treated as a term that requires disambiguation when encountered, since it does not refer to a single widely known topic.
