HelpRe: Cordelia
in reply to a message by Amandine
I think it's charming and colourful. I think Cordelia had more of a snobby reputation when Buffy the Vampire slayer was on TV because of the character, but that's not part of the general public's associations anymore.
Cordelia matches the kind of "educated eccentric" type of names that are slowly gaining some admiration from new parents, like Theodora, Seraphina, Winifred, Eleanora, etc. Like yeah technically it's a lot of name, but I think people appreciate the gravitas a bit now.
Cordelia feels more friendly and accessible than Cornelia (though I like both).

Wasn't there a Winifred on Buffy too?
Oh yeah! If I recall, she was on Angel, the spinoff.... And went by "Fred". I remember thinking she was really cute!
