It's lovely. Love Coralie too.
Only downside is some accents don't pronounce the L at the end of words so it becomes Coraw which isn't nice.
I have a friend with a baby Coralie and I think it is such a perfect name. Can be shortened to Coral or Cora and is unusual, pretty but easy to pronounce.

Not for me. It makes me think of shellfish Confused

I prefer Cora

Yes, just reminds me of gambling.

I prefer Cora, it's got the same ring but feels more elegant to me.

You’re fine. Neither name sounds dodgy.

Saying that, coral sounds a bit like oral?!?
