Dolph is recognized by his asymmetrical haircut which covers one eye and wears cutoff shorts and Chuck Taylor All-Stars style basketball shoes.

Sports

He is a player in the Mighty Pigs Peewee Hockey League Team.

Traits

He is left-handed and looks to be 15 years old.

Also, it turns out Dolph is Jewish and attended Hebrew school, which was first shown during the fourth-season episode Kamp Krusty.

Languages

According to his profile in "24 Minutes," Dolph speaks "Spanish, German, Hebrew, Arabic, Korean, Latin, Old English, Klingon, and Esperanto."

Name Origin

He is named after Matt Groening’s classmate Dolph Timmerman. Groening has said that Timmerman wasn’t a bully at all, but a “really cool guy."

In the Dark

Dolph is generally regarded as the most mysterious of Jimbo's gang, usually silent and always soft-spoken when that silence is broken. It is speculated that Dolph may be the most sensitive of the group, even more so than softie Nelson Muntz. His real name is something about which no hints have been provided, and some fans have offered criticism for the show's writers, citing that in The Simpsons' nearly twenty year run, Dolph is one of very few characters to have been almost completely ignored. Dolph is also a very minor character compared to Jimbo and Kearney and he doesn't speak as much as them however in newer seasons he tends to be speak more regularly than in the earlier episodes. He also has made quite a few speaking appearances in the 20th season. Dolph did also play a major role in 24 Minutes along with Jimbo and Kearney.
