What do you think of Cordelia? We liked it with dd1, but got bored with it then (9 years ago!), but we are starting to like it again.

Also Coral - is this too much with a dd2 called Pearl?

Thanks!

Lovely name. Partic LadyCressida's short version 'Dilly'. V sweet - yet still got a more formal name for forms & CVs!

FYI: although birth cert says Alexander, my son is called Xander and no one has commented on the possible Buffy connection. Have to admit that's where I first heard the shortened version and liked it much more than Alex.

I like it. Cordelia is lovely.

I wouldn't have Coral and Pearl together though. I think it's getting a bit 'Poppy, Daisy, Petal' names with a theme-ish.

5DollarShake: It's what Anne of Green Gables wanted to be called.

Love it - my DDs middle name. Saw King Lear when I was 39 weeks pregnant and she kicked all the way through the peformance - which gave me the idea.
