Lilian Elizabeth
by Brooke
(Australia)
We chose the name Lilian Elizabeth, both family names for our baby girl. Both the maternal and paternal grandmothers are named Lilian, and Elizabeth is a middle name that has been passed down through the generations on the maternal side of the family.
Lilian is a variation of the spelling of Lillian, a popular baby girl's name of English origin. The source of the English name, Lillian, is the Lily a flower that is a symbol of purity, beauty and innocence.
The name Elizabeth is another English baby girl's name and it's popularity spans centuries perhaps due to its uplifting meaning "My God is bountiful and God of plenty".
If you recall, John the Baptist's mother was named Elizabeth. This name is popular with the English royal family and is known as one of the most frequently used names in England.
The baby names Lilian Elizabeth are popular baby girls' names when used separately as well as with other baby middle names and are even more lovely because of your family's history.
