Blythe dolls are fashion dolls that stand 11 inches or 30 cm tall with an oversized head and eyes that change color by a pull of a string. The unique charm and appeal of these dolls stem from the adorable characters that they portray.
Old English: ‘joyous’, ‘kind’, ‘cheerful’, ‘pleasant’
Proto-Germanic: ‘gentle’, ‘kind’
Old Saxon: ‘bright’, ‘happy’
Middle Dutch & Old Norse: ‘mild’, ‘gentle’
Old High German: ‘gay’, ‘friendly’
Gothic: ‘kind’, ‘friendly’, ‘merciful’
The word Blythe means ‘carefree’ nowadays. The spelling ‘Blythe’ actually covers all those good vibes up into an elegant, sophisticated, yet lively English surname. ‘Blythe‘ is an uncommon and stylish name.
“Blythe” is a name that originates from Middle English, Old English, and Proto-Germanic.
“Blythe” is a fashion doll with an oversized head and large eyes that change color with the pull of a string. There are three (3) main types of Blythe dolls: Neo, Petite, and Middie. Neo Blythe is 12 inches (30 cm) tall, Middie Blythe is 8 inches (20 cm) tall, and Petite Blythe is 4 inches (10 cm) tall.
We safely wrap the head to protect the forehead and avoid messy hair during transportation. Nothing to worry about! Please remove it after unboxing your doll.
The specific Blythe product page will specify what color outfit a Blythe doll has. It’s usually encouraged to add some clothes and shoes for your new Blythe doll.
Our Premium Blythe Doll Full Set category has Blythe dolls that are fully clothed with premium quality dress and shoes – they are ready-to-play out-of-the-box!
That is awesome! Welcome to the exciting world of Blythe – it’s so much fun!

The most popular affordable Blythe category is our Factory Neo Blythe Dolls section which has the best factory dolls.

Our custom Neo Blythe Doll eye colors vary from Brown, Blue, Purple, Green, Light Purple, Orange, and a few more unique colors. For a one-of-a-kind OOAK Custom Blythe Doll, eye colors will be as advertised on their photos.
We have Factory Neo Blythe Dolls for customizers and collectors who would like to customize and accessorize their dolls on their own. Due to the low price tag, these dolls do not come with any dress or shoes; therefore, you are always encouraged to purchase some clothes and shoes for your new factory Blythe doll.
A Middie Blythe is around 20 cm (8 inches) tall.
“OOAK” stands for “One Of A Kind”. OOAK dolls are one piece only, usually with outfit and accessories which are selected or crafted by hand and not part of an assembly-line production process. Our one-of-a-kind OOAK Blythes are made by hand-picked professional Blythe customizers, and each doll may take up to one month to produce. An OOAK implies that there has been no same doll before and there will be no additional ones in the future.
A Neo Blythe is around 30 cm (12 inches) tall, close to a standard Barbie doll which is 11.5 inches tall.
A Petite Blythe is around 10 cm (4 inches) tall.
The price for a custom-made Blythe doll depends on the customizer’s skillset, experience, knowledge, and material-related costs. Please see our Custom OOAK Blythe Dolls page for prices around the world.
