Word origin
The word 'doe' has its origins in Middle English, derived from the Old English word 'dฤ' meaning female deer. The term has been used for centuries to specifically refer to female deer in the context of hunting and wildlife. Over time, the word has also taken on informal meanings to refer to women or be used as an abbreviation for 'Department of Energy'.
