Lilly

Girl's first name

Lilly is a given name, a variant spelling of Lily.

The flower name became popular for girls in the late nineteenth century, and Lilly emerged as an alternative that looks more like a traditional name than a word.

Lilly was the third girl born that year in their small town. (Lowercase lily is the flower.)
