I know that
Coraline is ordinarily associated with the scary children's book/movie, but what is your opinion of it? What person would you imagine having it? Is it too "severe"?
This name occasionally lingers in my consciousness in part because as a teenager I had a horrible illness one week, leading to an intense and vivid fever dream on night in which I was on the run from the law like The Fugitive for false claims with a partner and our daughter, a little platinum blonde girl between 3-4 named
Coraline that we called "
Cori" for short. I do not like
Cory for a girl and didn't than either but even though it was a scary dream I loved my little "dream baby" who kept wanting to be picked up and cuddled. Probably my most vivid "dream kid" I've ever had lol so
Coraline has a soft spot in my heart even though it's kind of "intense". In the present I may be more tempted to use
Cora over
Cori as a NN though.
