1) What are your opinions of Adelaide?
Being the mother of a little Adelaide, I would say I'm quite fond of it. :) Not that I'm biased at all.
2) Is Adelaide Sophia a good combo? If not, any other combo ideas?
I love Sophia, but its popularity scares me away. In the middle name spot it works really well, though. Adelaide Sophia flows nicely.
3) Is Adele/Adelle an okay nick name? Can you think of any others.
I think Adele/Adelle is a fine nn for Adelaide. As for others there is always Ada, Addie, Adda, Dell, Della, Lady.
4) Does it go well with William Nathaniel?
Yes, very well.

My little Adelaide is Adelaide Hope(which was not meant as a virtue name, it in fact was my maiden name). We call her Adda. The added d is because we pronounce it Add-a(just like the first part of her name) not Ay-da. Oddly, before she was born we had intended her nn to be Della. She is often called Ladybug, too.
That's cute. Once again, thanks.
