Lily-Rose

Girl name · 174 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Lily-Rose: 174 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 16 births in 2012.

A lyrical compound name that blends two timeless floral classics, Lily-Rose pairs the Latin lilium, symbolising purity, with the Latin rosa, a universal emblem of love and beauty. The combination soared in popularity during the early 2000s, partly thanks to Lily-Rose Depp, the actress and model whose parents are Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis. While no specific places share the exact double name, both Lily and Rose appear widely in Scottish place-names, and the pairing itself reflects a broader Scottish fondness for hyphenated first names that honour family or cultural heritage. The name’s delicate, romantic feel has made it an enduring favourite for parents seeking something both sweet and sophisticated.
