TayoEXE's Research (English):
As for something that would be good to add to your video if you so choose, I translated pretty much this entire article from the Nico Nico Pedia back when we were DMing each other, but I’ll translate an important part.

Adeleine’s entry in Nico Nico Pedia
Translation:
“The Relationship between Adeleine and Ado
According to the "Kirby 20th Anniversary Encyclopedia," "it is uncertain whether they are the same person or not." Also, it implies that it's very likely that Adeleine is her real name and Ado is just a nickname.”
Conjecture from Official Materials
In materials for the staff and the magazine "The 64DREAM," Adeleine was addressed as "Ado," and it seems that they were regarded as the same person. The following are excerpts from parts of the articles:
From a briefing meeting (in 2000),
"Waddle Dee, Ado, and King Dedede not only appear in cutscenes, but they also appear in various parts of the stages."
From The 64DREAM (April 2000 issue),
"Next up is Ado-chan. I'm going to clear up Ado-chan's real name now. It sounds like her name is actually Adeleine. Make sure you all remember that from now on."
From The 64DREAM (May 2000 issue),
"Here is Adeleine who appeared in the last game, "Kirby's Dreamland 3.” She helps Kirby with her specialty, drawings. You'll be able to see her on Popstar.""
The above all seem to be talking about Kirby 64, which is fitting since this issue came out the same time that Kirby 64 came out.
The 64DREAM
Upon doing a little research, Nintendo’s official magazine in Japan is called “Nintendo Dream” (called “Nindori” for short), while in the U.S., the official magazine is “Nintendo Power.” Back in 1996, Nindori was originally a magazine called “The 64DREAM” to coincide with the Nintendo 64’s release in 1996. So, The 64DREAM is definitely an official Nintendo source.
Info on the first issue of The 64DREAM, and as someone in this article pointed out, “currently Nindori.”

Descripción de Adeleine en Nico Nico Pedia:
“La relación entre Adeleine y Ado”
Según la enciclopedia del 20º aniversario de Kirby, no se sabe a ciencia cierta si se tratan de la misma persona. Además, da a entender que Adeleine es su verdadero nombre, mientras que Ado algo así como un apodo.
Información de fuentes oficiales:
En la revista "The 64DREAM”, el equipo de desarrollo hablaba sobre Adeleine bajo el nombre de “Ado”, por lo que parece que la trataban como el mismo personaje. Aquí hay varios fragmentos de los artículos de dicha revista:
En una reunión informativa del 2000:
"Waddle Dee, Ado, y el Rey Dedede no solo saldrán en las cinemáticas, también aparecerán en distintas partes de los niveles."
En la edición de abril de 2000 de The 64DREAM:
"Ahora hablemos sobre Ado. Mejor aclaremos lo de su nombre antes que nada, suena como si su verdadero nombre fuese Adeleine. Es buena idea tenerlo en cuenta a partir de ahora."
En la edición de mayo de 2000 de The 64DREAM:
"Aquí tenemos a Adeleine, la cual apareció en la última entrega, “Dream Land 3”. Ayudará a Kirby gracias a su habilidad especial, los dibujos. Podrán verla merodeando por el planeta Pop."
Todo lo anterior habla sobre Kirby 64, y tiene sentido, ya que estas ediciones salieron justo durante el lanzamiento en Japón del Kirby 64.
The 64DREAM
Tras investigar un poco, la revista japonesa oficial de Nintendo se conoce como “Nintendo Dream” (también abreviada como “Nindori”), mientras que en los Estados Unidos la revista oficial es “Nintendo Power.” En 1996, Nindori era una revista llamada “The 64DREAM”, para relacionarse con el lanzamiento de la Nintendo 64 ese mismo año. Por lo que The 64DREAM es sin duda una fuente oficial.
