oh my goodness, ETA:
I thought I would be laughed off the forum for Cornelia! It's oddly reassuring to see that someone else (with awesome taste, I might add) likes this name. Right on us.
I thought of using Nell as a nickname, myself... I'm not sure what would feel more natural. Maybe I should try yelling it a few times and see what slips out, lol.
Edited: Also, for the first time ever, the middle name came along with the first name - Cornelia Juniper (or Kornelia Juniper). Juniper would actually be an honouring name for me - it is the childhood nickname of my best friend, who would be the child's godparent. What do you think of that? Does that push it over the edge of quirky into unfortunately insane?? I love it so.

Wow, I love Cornelia Juniper! I think it just makes it even more awesome! Gorgeous!
Nell is adorable as a nickname. (I just have a soft spot for the sweet Connie)
I want to like Kornelia, but the KORN part reminds me of the band Korn a bit....Both are really awesome though.
Forgot to say: I love Cornelius for a boy too, and for either sex, Neely is an adorable nickname too!

hrm, didn't think of that...
The band thing does make me hesitate a bit - I wonder how many people would think I had named some poor defenseless child after them... I just thought that K made it a little edgier (maybe it's because I grew up with a K-spelled C-name myself).
Neely is adorable, thank you!
