I think [name_f]Gillian[/name_f] is sweeter and more unexpected, while still being spunky, I prefer the Jillian spelling though

Edited because I misread!

I slightly prefer [name_f]Gillian[/name_f]; it feels very warm and friendly to me and unexpected in a fun way. They’re both really lovely, though!

Gillian is gorgeous and a longtime favourite of mine. I love to see it used!

Riley doesn’t appeal to me.

i guess i’m in the minority… okay…
[name_u]Riley[/name_u] is very fun and spunky! [name_f]Gillian[/name_f] too, but [name_u]Riley[/name_u] just appeals to me more, since it’s a childhood favourite too =D

I prefer [name_u]Riley[/name_u]. I know [name_u]Riley[/name_u] is very popular right now, but I grew up with so many Gillians/Jillians, the name feels a bit more stale to me now. Both are nice names though.

I love the name [name_f]Gillian[/name_f]. It’s not as common as [name_u]Riley[/name_u] and I like the nickname [name_u]Gilly[/name_u].
