Cordelia

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.

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.
