HelpRe: Cordelia
in reply to a message by Murasaki
I love Cordelia - I'd use it in a second - dh hates it though. He screws up his face whenever I mention it - it's his least favourite of my "flowery"(i.e OTT) names.
*I* don't see it as pretentious - the tragic connotations do bother me a little but not as much as with Ophelia. I'd never use Ophelia. When I was in college my friend's boyfriend's mother had a baby and they called her Ophelia. We were horrified.They had a very cool second name that made her sound like a heroine from a Victorian novel which was good though.
