Love it for the Shakespeare connection, and just recently started liking it more. I would use Coco as a nn.

I don't mind it but I do find it quite old fashioned. I love the nickname Cora but I hate any of the other nicknames, like Cordy or Delia... which sort of puts me off.I think Eloise is nicer than Cordelia.

It is up there on my short list.

I love Cordelia! It's one of my more recent favorites. I love that it's so elegant and buttoned-up, but can be made more friendly for everyday use by the many nickname possibilities, my favorite of which is Cora.

Cordelia is beautiful and sophisticated sounding. It's a little too frilly for me, but I still like it.Ada is lovely and sweet. It's more grounded than Cordelia, but still classy.Eloise is a name I want to like, but the ending makes me think of the word "wheeze." Out of the three, Ada is my favorite.

I really like it. I even know a girl whose grandmother was named Cordelia, and she was named Cordia after her. I think Cordia would be a great nn for Cordelia.
