Lilia or Mila?

Does one strike you as being more beautiful or less expected than the other?

Also, I really like the idea of having the nickname [name_f]Lilou[/name_f] rather than [name_f]Lily[/name_f] if we go with [name_f]Lilia[/name_f] - thoughts?

[name_f]Lilia[/name_f] is less expected than [name_f]Mila[/name_f] and I like it slightly more. I also like [name_f]Lilou[/name_f] as a nickname, it definitely works.

Thank you @eoxima! [name_f]Do[/name_f] you think one goes better with my other children’s names (Éva & [name_m]Dimitri[/name_m])?

[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_f]Lilia[/name_f] nn [name_f]Lilou[/name_f]! ^^ If unexpected is important to you, this is the choice! I also think it goes better with Éva and [name_m]Dimitri[/name_m]. [name_f]Mila[/name_f] is a little too bland for this mix if you ask me, it’s also #53 on the charts. [name_f]Lily[/name_f] and [name_f]Lilian[/name_f] are at #25/26 but [name_f]Lilia[/name_f], especially with [name_f]Lilou[/name_f] as the nickname feels a lot fresher. [name_f]Mila[/name_f] is very on trend and feels very current, she basically came out of nowhere in 2006/2008 and shot up to the top of the charts. [name_f]Lily[/name_f] and all her variants have more the air of timeless classics, which is a better fit with Éva’s vibe.

You’re welcome, and most definitely.

I prefer [name_f]Mila[/name_f]. Yes technically it’s more popular than [name_f]Lilia[/name_f], but in the end to me [name_f]Lilia[/name_f] is just another variation of [name_f]Lily[/name_f] which is over used at the moment. I also prefer [name_f]Mila[/name_f] with your other children’s names.

I find [name_f]Lilia[/name_f] more feminine and unique. It still feels familiar without trying too hard to be different. [name_f]Mila[/name_f] is not a bad name, but I feel it pales in comparison to the soft, lovely, feminine [name_f]Lilia[/name_f].

[name_f]Lilia[/name_f] is less expected. [name_f]Lilou[/name_f] is adorable and [name_f]Lilia[/name_f] is more of a “full” name. [name_f]Mila[/name_f] continues to feel like a nickname for [name_f]Camila[/name_f] to me.

I love [name_f]Lilia[/name_f]! Earlier this year I met a girl named [name_f]Lilia[/name_f] and I’ve been in love with the name ever since.
I think both names flow well with [name_f]Eva[/name_f] and [name_m]Dimitri[/name_m] however [name_f]Mila[/name_f] just seems more bland than her siblings. [name_f]Lilia[/name_f] is a different name and a lot less common than [name_f]Mila[/name_f].
Can I suggest you start a poll?

@musicwaves Yes, I was trying to set up a poll but did it incorrectly so it didn’t work. That was my original intention with this post.

[name_f]Lilia[/name_f] is less expected, but I live [name_f]Mila[/name_f] with your sibset. What about [name_f]Milena[/name_f]?

I have both on my list as well. You have great taste;) I think either option goes really well with your older kids’ names. I agree that [name_f]Lilia[/name_f] is a bit more unique as [name_f]Mila[/name_f] has been getting more popular. You can’t go wrong!

I have a preference for [name_f]Mila[/name_f] but [name_f]Lilia[/name_f] is pretty too. [name_f]Do[/name_f] you know what the middle names would be? That could be a game changer.

I love [name_f]Lilia[/name_f] with your other kids’ names! It’s such a pretty name and [name_f]Lilou[/name_f] is too adorable :smiley:
