Wow, I could have posted this!With the exceptions of Lydia and Gwendolyn, all of those have been on my personal name list at one time or another. I like Lydia enough, too. Gwendolyn I'm not fond of, though I do love Genevieve.Of the MNs you have listed, I think Cora June flows best, though overall it's not my favorite name of what you have listed.Some more suggestions from my reserves:
Cora Beatrice
Cora Helena
Cora Lucille
Cora MeredithMagnanimous Despair alone could show me so divine a thing, where feeble hope could ne'er have flown, but vainly flapped its tinsel wing.

I love Cora, its cute on a little girl but still works on someone a bit older. Cora June is lovely! I also would love to see Cora Isabel, Cora Lydia or Cora Sylvia. Much as I like Olive and Violet, putting either of them with Cora kind of makes it sound more like a phrase then a name, to me.Other suggestions:
Cora Genevieve
Cora Jillian
Cora Veronica
Cora Virginia
Cora Annabel
Cora Mercedes
Cora Emily
Cora Rhiannon

Cora Genevieve is very nice and I also like Cora Veronica...but my last name starts with a "V" so I just wonder if it would be a bit of a tongue twister. It might work...Thanks for your opinion and suggestions!!! :)

I love these namesYou have really lovely taste! With the eception of Amelia, Violet, Isabel, and Bianca, all are names I'd consider.Cora I have mixed feelings on. On one hand, it's very pretty - but I still picture an older woman with the name. I knew one, and she wasn't the type of older woman I admire. Cora June is pretty, but I'd use Cora Isabel.

I've loved the name Cora for a long time. Of your combos, I like Cora June and Cora Nadine the best.

Cora is one of those hidden treasures waiting to be rediscovered. Good for you. Of your mns choices I like Cora june the best. Gwendolyn -- Lovely, but traditionally Welsh girl names end in "-en" and boy names end in "-yn." Therefore I prefer the Gwendolen spelling.Cecilia -- Very pretty. I see you have both Cecilia and Cecelia listed. Which do you prefer? Since it's a feminine form of Cecil, I prefer the Cecilia spelling. Isabel -- Very elegant.Olive -- Love it. Such a nice alternative to overly used Olivia.Beatrice -- Beautiful classic.Bianca -- A little harsh sounding to my ears, but still a nice classic.Amelia -- Lovely, although I slightly prefer Emilia.Lydia -- World peace would be achieved if there were more Lydias, I always say.Violet -- So sweet. Nothing says "nostalgic charm" like Violet.Sylvia -- This is an up and comer of a name. At least I hope so. It's so effortlessly elegant.
