It worked so well as a shortened version of Cordelia that Delie is stepping out on its own. Cordelia is a classic feminine Latin name and takes its meaning from "cor," the Latin word for "heart." The name has been a constant throughout history, from Shakespeare's King Lear to Joss Whedon's Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Delie shares the same meaning as Cordelia, which will become apparent from the moment your eyes meet.
