From dolicho- + cephalic, hence literally roughly “long-headed”.

Is his head dolichocephalic or brachycephalic?” I wasn’t going to stand that from Suzanne. — The Man in the Brown Suit, Agatha Christie
Small, thin, restless, she presented a parched appearance, with bright, round, beady eyes continually roving in search of information from beneath the straggling fringe of a crumpled Pompadour transformation, for those horrors had recently become fashionable, and the whole world of women were vying with one another in the simulation of the criminal type of skull, with the Dolichocephalic Bulge. — The Dop Doctor, Richard Dehan
