MN for Cordelia

Looking for a middle name that has a beautiful meaning and flows with the name [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f]. [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] means jewel of the sea :slight_smile:

I’m thinking names with meanings similar to breeze, jewel, peaceful, bright, pure, light, etc. Anything peaceful and serene :slight_smile:

Can’t end in the same sound as -[name_u]Elia[/name_u]. Preferable doesn’t end in -[name_f]Anne[/name_f]. My daughters name is [name_f]Emelia[/name_f] (rhymes with [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f]) [name_f]Louanne[/name_f]. So I don’t want the middle names to be too close.

However, I [name_f]Adore[/name_f] [name_f]Lucerne[/name_f]! Is that too close?!

Is [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_f]Lucerne[/name_f] [name_m]Brown[/name_m] a mouthful? I love short middle names, but much prefer longer middle names with beautiful meanings.

[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_f]Snow[/name_f]
[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_u]Winter[/name_u]
[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_f]Lark[/name_f]
[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_u]Story[/name_u]
[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_f]Noor[/name_f] (meaning blinding light)

[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_f]Lucerne[/name_f]… I didn’t like it much, for me, it’s difficult to pronounce.

[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_f]Fern[/name_f] (I’m not a fan of this one, but I think it’s important to, a least, make you aware of it. Plant name)

[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_f]Lune[/name_f] (in my mouth, [name_f]Lune[/name_f] has a pretty different sound than [name_f]Louanne[/name_f]. [name_f]Moon[/name_f], always awesome!)

[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_u]Dove[/name_u] (cute - . The animal. Symbol of peace)

[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_f]Marie[/name_f] (I like this one a lot. It’s in your list of favorite middle names)

[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_f]Seraphine[/name_f] (means “burning ones”, but the first thing that comes to my mind is the angel classification)

[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_f]Serena[/name_f] / [name_f]Sirena[/name_f] (it gives me this Italian aspect)

[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] (a royalty name)

[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_f]Lucerne[/name_f] is lovely. Also, [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_u]Wynn[/name_u].

[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_f]Lucerne[/name_f]- my hubs said the same thing. That he has a hard time pronouncing it. I love it :confused:

[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_f]Fern[/name_f]-
I adore this name, but it’s my moms middle name and do not want to name a child after her :confused:

[name_f]Lune[/name_f] isn’t really long enough for me. I love [name_f]Ruth[/name_f] as a middle… But don’t like the four letter names alone :confused:

[name_u]Dove[/name_u]- same thing. But it’s sooo precious!

[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_f]Marie[/name_f]- I keep going back to this pairing. There isn’t any reason I love this name, but it flows so beautifully.

[name_f]Seraphine[/name_f]- that’s actually very very beautiful!!! Adding it to the list :slight_smile:

[name_f]Serena[/name_f] is one of my favorites. I didn’t know if the -[name_u]Elia[/name_u] and -a was too much? Hmm… I love the meaning. It’s worth a try with the hubs.

[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]- I think this sounds so beautiful and royal- for sure!! Sending him these ideas!

[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] is one of my favorites. It may just be tooooo perfect for [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f]. [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]- jewel of the sea. Lol :slight_smile: my hubs liked it until he realized that. It’s also my moms moms name… Same reason we won’t use fern. :confused: don’t want to name baby after them.

[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] Malie [name_m]Brown[/name_m]
Pronounced:
mah-lee
Meaning: calm in Hawaiian. we’re actually pronouncing it without the a sound at the end. It’s also Hebrew for wished for child :slight_smile:

Hubs agrees and loves

[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_f]Lucerne[/name_f] is not easy to pronounce. So the shortness of monosyllabic [name_m]Brown[/name_m] doesnt stick out, Id suggest a shorter middle name.

[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f]… [name_m]Brown[/name_m]

[name_f]Marie[/name_f] (Same as previous poster. I dont really even like [name_f]Marie[/name_f], but this pairing is the best one, I feel! It just sounds like a well put together name!)
[name_f]Ann[/name_f] (I think it sounds good as middle name! If you dont like it… What about variations like [name_u]Andrea[/name_u]?)
[name_f]Alice[/name_f]
[name_f]May[/name_f]
[name_f]Renee[/name_f]
[name_f]Mikaela[/name_f]
[name_f]Theresa[/name_f]
[name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]
