Wikipedia
dopp kit
A toiletry bag (also called a toiletry kit, dopp kit, bathroom bag, ditty bag, sponge bag, toilet bag, personal hygiene kit, travel kit, or washkit) is a portable container—usually a pouch with a drawstring or zippered closure—that holds body hygiene and toiletry supplies such as toothbrush and toothpaste, dental floss, cotton swabs, deodorant, nail clippers, tweezers, soap, shaving supplies, hairbrush, contact lenses and feminine products. Toiletry bags are most often used for traveling and in living circumstances where permanent shelves and cupboards are unavailable for use. Toiletry bags vary widely in size, however most are designed to be stored within a primary bag such as a backpack or suitcase. Designs vary widely as well, from simple plastic pouches to high-quality leather kits and designs that fold out for easy access. Toiletry bags are usually purchased and packed by the consumer, however many companies from e-commerce websites to convenience stores also sell simple pre-packed toiletry kits.

Dopp kit
A Dopp kit is a small toilet bag, made of leather, vinyl, or cloth, that is used for storing men's grooming tools for travel. Common items kept in a Dopp kit are deodorant, a razor, shaving cream, comb, shampoo, nail clippers, scissors, toothbrush, toothpaste, and cologne. The name derives from early 20th century leather craftsman Charles Doppelt, a German immigrant to the United States, who invented his toiletry case in 1919. The kits became widely known during the Second World War when they were issued to GIs. Doppelt's company was purchased by Samsonite in the early 1970s. Dopp kits were once a common gift given to adolescent males as they ascended from boyhood to adulthood. Although the term was originally a trademark, it appears to have at least mostly become generic, and the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office lists the trademark as abandoned. In the British Isles the item is known as a "sponge bag".
