Cordelia

What do you think?

It is DP's favourite name, and I'm coming around. It's a bit 'out there' for my usual tastes, but I guess it isn't too out there, is it? it reminds us of buffy too

I absolutely love the name Cora too, and would possibly use it as a nickname but not all the time (if I intended to and DP liked it too, I would just use it as I know it is a name). Do you think Cora could work as a casual nickname for Cordelia?

Love Cora! And it’s nice to have a longer name option too. Cordelia isn’t my favourite, but it’s nice.

I’d go for it!

I came on to say it reminds me of Anne of Green Gables too 😍

I don't really like the name but I do love that book/film series ❤️

It's a bit witchy but I like that. It is a really nice name and different from the ultra popular names.

Love it. Am binge watching Buffy right forgot what a great character Cordelia is

I don’t like it. It manages to be both frilly and clunky to my ears.

I know one with nn Cory. Love it!

I love it. DD has a (fab) friend called Cordiana which I also love.

Cordy. It's lovely and just slightly unusual.

I love it. It is the other name we were considering for our LO. We went with something shorter in the end due to a long surname!

I know the loveliest Cordelia. She gets her full name most of the time but sometimes Delie or Cordy.

Sorry I'm not a fan, although I usually like those style of names that one in particular makes me think of bullies/spoilt kids, or rich cantankerous old ladies. No idea why, as I don't think I've ever met a Cordelia!

I love it. think its a fab name

I really like Cordelia and I’d use Cora or Delia as nicknames

Cordelia is lovely, so is Delia.

I like it. I know one who is 6. Lovely name.

And there are some adorable soft toys called Cordyroys.

It’s my absolute favourite. Beautiful name!

It was on our shortlist for DD2. We were considering Corey or Cordy as a nn

I really like the name and definitely think it's usable. I immediately think of Shakespeare and Anne of Green Gables. I'm not a fan of Cora, though it certainly works as a short form. I prefer Cory or Cordy.
