Meaning & origin
Lillar is an exceptionally rare name that first appeared in U.S. records in 1894 with fewer than five births that year. Its peak year was also 1894, and it has never ranked among the top 1000 names. The name's trajectory is stable, meaning it has remained at very low usage levels for decades. The origin of Lillar is uncertain; it may have been a variant of the more familiar Lillah or a creative formation from the popular Lily. Because of its rarity, Lillar is not associated with any particular region or cultural tradition.
