Dubaulī is the name of several places in India. It comes from the Dūbe subgroup of Brahmins and the common suffix -aulī. Dubaulī is an irregular form; the regular version would be Dubelī, which exists but is much less common. The -aulī suffix has several possible origins, including Sanskrit palli, meaning "small village."

- Dubauli, Bihiya, a village in Bhojpur district, Bihar
- Dubauli, Garhani, a village in Bhojpur district, Bihar
- Dighwa Dubauli, a village in Gopalganj district, Bihar
