HelpRe: Cornelia
in reply to a message by Marie
Hehe...I think Cornelia is harsher than Cordelia. Cornelia feels like it emphasizes every syllable while the -delia part just rolls off the tongue.
What do you think about Cornelia? It isn't a favorite but I kind of like it. It feels very formal, elegant & regal.
Do you dislike it because it can be shortened to Corny? I think just the whole Corn- beginning in general keeps me from liking it more.
Do you think it's too old-fashioned to use? ehh...not really. It depends on what the naming patterns around you are. I could totally see it on NYC prep school girl. I could also see her in a middle of suburbia school but she will stand out more among all the Kendalls, Rylees and Mckennas.
Could you picture a little Cornelia? Yep
I like it better as a middle name. That way the whole name is kept in tact & beautiful. Like I think Victoria is beautiful but would hate if it got shortened to Vicki or Tori so it is on my favorite middle name list.
I like:
Cornelia Juliet
Cornelia Elspeth
Cornelia Gabrielle
Cornelia Marian
