This is the NUMBER ONE question asked about the Rudolph special. Despite Dolly being very sweet and adorable, she's a Misfit because:
1) Charley-In-The-Box says that a Misfit Toy is one that "NO LITTLE CHILD LOVES". Dolly found herself unloved for lack of good reason, and/or possibly because she was a rag doll at a time when the more "realistic" dolls were the latest craze (e.g. listen to Foreman Elf tell Hermey about the dolls that "children want" while watching Rudolph).
2) Also, Rudolph's producer says Dolly was abandoned by her little girl and suffered depression from being unloved. Perhaps she wound up a present to a girl who (like all the others) also didn't want her and cast her away.
The only thing "defective or "broken" about Dolly was her broken heart, caused by being unwanted. But Rudolph and Santa found her a loving little girl to want and love her.

On the island of misfit toys in Rudolph the red nose reindeer what was the name of the toy doll?
Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer & The Island of Misfit Toys
What is the name of the island on Rudolph the red nose reindeer?
Dolly, like the other Misfit Toys, was not wanted or loved by any child. Her reason for being there was never mentioned in the special, but Rudolph's producer, Arthur Rankin Jr., says Dolly's problem was psychological, caused by being abandoned by a little girl and being depressed because she was unloved.
What made the doll on Rudolph a misfit?
Her name, by all accounts I've read, is simply DOLLY. It's possible that her name might become Sue, as in " . . . a Dolly For Sue (from the lyrics to the song she and the Misfit Toys sang). She was a Misfit Toy because she was "cast away by her mistress, and suffered depression", according to Rudolph's producer Arthur Rankin Jr. The only thing "broken" about Dolly was her broken heart, because no little girl wanted her . . . or so she thought. Santa and Rudolph took care of that one foggy Christmas Eve, when Dolly became the first toy delivered that Christmas Eve (watch Rudolph, just before the ending credits roll).

What is wrong with dolly in Rudolph?
Well as you know in the movie they never told you what is wrong with the doll. Some say she had a psychological problem because no one wanted her, but she would have to have a problem in order to be on the island which is never told. First of all, in my personal opinion, I disagree she had a psychological problem because she is a doll! Also it is a children's movie. As in children I mean, little children. Little children would not understand the concept of psychological problem. It'd be over their head. It would have to be something physical in order to know what is wrong with her. It's more sensible that way. For an example, Charlie in the box, instead of a jack in the box or the gun that shoots out jelly. You can see all those things and why they are misfits! It has to be something that you'd have to see that causes them to be a misfit. Here are some possibilities of why you can never know what is wrong with the doll:1. The director/ producers/ writers forgot to say what is wrong with her.2. The makers of Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer wanted to leave it a mystery on purpose and make you spot out that no one mentioned what was wrong with her.3. The producer probably needed her to help tell the story.4. They probably wanted this doll for a girl since all the other toys seemed to be boyish toys.So far this is what I can think of unless the writers/producers or director are interviewed and can give an answer. There are no more possibilities that can be found or answered at this point.
