3 for Dalman, q.v.

Surnames of the United Kingdom (1912) by Henry Harrison

The verb "to dole" signifies to share or divide; to set out in portions or lots, whether of land, goods, or money. Anglo-Saxon, doelan. Perhaps the original Doleman may have been a distributor either of alms, or of lands under the "tenantry" arrangements of feudal times. Or he may have been such a "judge or divider"-that is arbitrator-as the one mentioned in Luke XII. 14. A less desirable derivation is from the A.-Sax dol, foolish, erring, heretical, and man. Doleman. De la Dole. H.R.
