I am expecting my third girl, we already have a Camila Juliet (nickname Mila) and a Coraline Jolie (nickname Cora). We are sticking to the CJ initials and I am super picky. My husband is 100% on Team Cordelia and doesn't like that Charlotte has a different "C-sound"...which is actually one of the things I like about it. Here are my pros & cons:
Charlotte Pros: Such a pretty name- especially with Joelle, I think it goes with our other daughters' names without being too similar, my picky mom likes it Charlotte Cons: It's super popular right now, I'm not a fan of Charlie, Lottie, or any of its other nicknames and I'm a 'nickname person.'
Cordelia Pros: I love the nickname Ellie/Elia. It's my husband's #1 choice. It's not popular right now, I think it's a pretty name Cordelia Cons: Starts with the same 3 letters as Coraline (our 2nd daughter. Not sure why this bothers me), Reactions from others have been mixed, is it too weird?
I voted Cordelia. I think it's pretty and Charlotte is so popular these days. Plus you loving the nicknames (and not liking the ones for Charlotte) and your husband loving it.
Also I don't think it should matter what your mom thinks.
I voted Cordelia because it's very pretty and much less common than Charlotte which is super trendy right now. But I think it is too close sounding to Coraline.. LOVE pp's suggestion of either Catalina or Colette.
I voted Charlotte because I think Cordelia is too close to Coraline. I tend to agree with your husband the about the C sound being different than your other 2 daughters though. If it were me, I'd prefer it the same sound if I'm doing all C names.
