While I think that [name]Lilia[/name] [name]Margaret[/name] [name]May[/name] has the best flow, I voted for [name]Lily[/name] [name]Margaret[/name] [name]May[/name]. I think [name]Lily[/name] has a beautiful simplicity which is lost a little with [name]Lilia[/name]. Also, I think that all [name]Lily[/name] variants will rise in popularity alongside it, so I would pick the one you love the most rather than going for the one which is currently the least popular.
Good luck, and you really can’t go wrong - both names are so elegant and beautiful!
I agree with the previous poster. [name]Both[/name] variants of the name will probably rise in popularity, so if [name]Lily[/name] is the name you really like, then go with it. It’s so classic and feminine, and I think your daughter will really like that her daddy felt so strongly about it.
All the double L names are on the rise. lola, lily, lilia, lulu etc. But who cares?
[name]LILIA[/name] is my vote! I think [name]Lily[/name], as sweet as it is, is too popular by itself and needs a full name to go with it. [name]Lilia[/name] is my favorite choice. Plus I think the flow of [name]Lilia[/name] [name]Margaret[/name] [name]May[/name] is much cleaner.
[name]Lily[/name] was also my number 1 girl’s name too- we had a boy! Despite how much I love the name, I was also a bit discouraged by it’s popularity and considering other options. I thought about the variations too- but I think they are going to rise just as much, since everyone seems to have the same thinking! My thinking was either go with the one you love - which seems to be [name]Lily[/name], or pick another name all together that is NOT popular if you are concerned about that! I have 2 boys so if we go for a third I am sure I will be in the same situation as I still do love the name!
there was a beautiful gymnast from Ukraine who won the 1996 all around competition in the olympics. her name was [name]Lilia[/name] and I’ve loved that name ever since!
