Lilliana

US Popularity Rank: 773

Origin: Latin

Meaning: lily

If you stretched out the name Lily, you’d get the melodic Lilliana. It’s a made-up name with a double-L but no ethnicity, unlike Lillian (English) or Liliana (Spanish and Portuguese). But it’s still a big part of the sisterhood of Lily names. It showed up on US baby-name charts at the turn of the century, so it’s a relatively new entry. As with the delicate lily flower that many brides carry down the aisle, Lilliana is a beautiful choice.
