Lilianna

Girl name · 53 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Lilianna: 53 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 7 births in 2013.

Lilianna is a modern elaboration of Lillian, which itself derives from the Latin *lilium*, meaning "lily." The flower has long symbolised purity and innocence, giving the name a gentle, classic feel. Famous bearers include the American actress Lilianna Moro, known for her work in independent film, and the name shares its root with the biblical figure Susanna, whose name also means "lily" in Hebrew. The spelling Lilianna, with its double 'n', is a popular contemporary variant that adds a lyrical, romantic flourish to the traditional Lillian. In Scotland, the name has seen steady use since the 1990s, often chosen for its soft, feminine sound and its connection to the enduringly popular Lily.
