Lilian

Lilian is a feminine given name of English, Hebrew, German and Latin origins. Lilian is originally a diminutive form of the Latin name Lilium, meaning 'lily'. As a result, the meaning of Lilian is 'flower,' and it came to symbolize purity and innocence. Lilian can also be interpreted to mean 'God is my oath'. This meaning is derived from the Latin name Elizabeth, which means 'God is abundance' and 'God has sworn'. Thus, Lilian can be seen as a reminder of God's faithfulness and provision. Lilian is usually believed to be a feminine name, but it is also used for boys in France and Poland. Therefore, Lilian does become a gender-neutral name.
