Dory is a fictional blue tang fish and a major character of Pixar's animated film series Finding Nemo. She suffers from short-term memory loss, which often causes frustration to Marlin, especially when his son Nemo is in danger. However, her childlike optimism and ability to communicate different languages from both humans and whales have helped both her and Marlin advance their quest to find Nemo.
The character is voiced by Ellen DeGeneres. Various merchandise of the character have also been produced, including action figures and toys produced for McDonald's Happy Meals.[2]
