Re: why reduce Adelaide to Lady?
Adelaide is a beautiful name, yes, but kids usually end up getting nicknames at some point, and I like it as an alternative to Addie-type nicknames.

Adel or Della would be preferable... or even Heidi.

There's a woman at another forum I post at with a daughter named Adelaide, nicknamed Laidey. I think it's rather sweet, and you're absolutely right about kids getting some sort of nickname eventually. I nickname everyone and everything, and if I had a kid he or she would be getting multiple nicknames, probably not planned.
