I am 10 weeks pregnant with my first child and i'm having trouble coming up with a girl name. I want to use the baby's great-grandparents middle name for my baby's middle name. I've got a boy name figured out, but i can't figure out a girl's name. The only grandmother i've ever known is named Patricia Sylvia. I have been having dreams that my child's name would be Lillie if it were a girl, and i really like the name Lillie, but Lillie Sylvia just doesn't sound good to me.

I'd really like to know if there's a longer form of Lillie besides Lillian or if there's another first name that sounds good with Sylvia. The last name is going to be Garrity.

Thanks

Lilith
Jillian
Liliana

You could maybe change the middle name to Sylvie? That's if you want to. Liliana Sylvie sounds cute.

Rose Sylvia
Violet Sylvia
Winifred Sylvia
Penelope Sylvia

You could try two middle names, if you want Lillie and Sylvia there :D

Such as:

Lillie Marie Sylvia
Lillie Deanne Sylvia
Lillie Taylor Sylvia
Lillie Faith Sylvia

All I can think of as long forms of Lillie would be Liliana, Lilian, or Lilith :) you could try even something like Lillie-Kate if you like that sort of stuff : )

I also think Patricia would flow greatly there! Lillie Patricia <3

Hope this helps!

  • Lily used to be a nickname for Elizabeth.
  • Lilibet is a pet form of Elizabeth; Lily could be nickname of a nickname.
  • The actress Lillie Langtry was born Emilie.
  • Lillias is the Scottish form of Lillian.
  • Lilla means "lilac" in Italian.
  • More ideas: Gillian, Delilah, Eulalie, Lorelei, Lucilla, Lilavati, Liesel, Liselotte, Leilani, Kelila, Lalage, Lelia, Leola, Laelia, Lalita, Luella

I don't know if it's a 'real' name or not, but a friend of mine has a daughter named Lilia.
You could write it Lillia if you wanted Lillie for the shortform.
Lillia Patricia sounds great to me.
Or, you could alter one of the middle names. Patrice instead of Patricia, or Sylvie for Sylvia?
