Or is it cute to name a baby girl Cinderella as her first name

Hmmm - I once had a dog named Cinderella. (I really did! I also had a dog named Bambi!)
I don't think she would be taken very seriously, with a name like Cinderella. Plus, being a teacher, I know it can be really hard to say some names with a straight face. I know of one teacher who has a "Precious" in her class. Precious is anything BUT precious! I have an "Adorable" in my class. Now, just imagine being ten years old and having the name "Adorable" - imagine a boy walking up to you and saying "Hi Adorable" "Adorable, can I borrow your pencil" Now imagine being "Adorable" at 15, with huge zits on your face, feeling awkward, and wondering why your parents ever named you "Adorable..."
Same thing goes for Cinderella. It is too "disneyfied" Besides, remember, Cinderella literally stands for "Cinder-maid" - she was a housemaid whose rag clothing was covered in ash and soot (cinders). She dreamed that Prince Charming would come and rescue her from her life of isolation and sadness. Not exactly the images you want associated with your beautiful baby girl, I would think...
If you like the name, try Cindy, Cynthia, Ella, etc. But I would probably recommend steering clear of Cinderella simply because it is SO a Disney Princess name with some pretty strong connotations attached to it.....

You can name her Ella. But just call her Cinderella when she is small. Like i call my daughter Princess but that is not her name. You can give her any nickname you want like Sweetpea, Toot, Ta, Chunky Monkey, or Chubby Cheeks. Or in your case use Cinderella. But Please don't put that name on her Birth Certificate. Happy New Year!!

As cute as naming her Princess or Darling or Precious.
Meaning not a good idea.
How about Cindy or Ella or Bella.
But think about the origins of Cinderella, she was the cindergirl made to be slave to her step family, living on a dream that one day she'd find a prince to rescue her. There were other names, such as the girl of fur, in where she disguised herself in rags of fur, but dressed up when seeing the prince... there are so many variations to the tale. It'd be opening up a can of worms. It's best as just a joking nickname at most.

Yes, it would be stupid
You don't want to end up like all the celebrities nowadays, calling their kids Tinkerlulu or whatever the hell they're called, plus, she will get bullied.
