Meaning & origin

Lilyann has been in use since at least 1916, but it saw its peak popularity in 2013, likely influenced by the broader trend for floral names and the enduring appeal of Lily. In 2025, the name ranked 2076 with an occurrence rate of 1 in 17,859 births, placing it well outside the top 1000. Its trajectory has been falling since 2012, reflecting a shift away from compound floral names. The name is most common in Washington, Tennessee, and New York, suggesting a scattered but loyal following. Lilyann offers a melodic, distinctly feminine option that blends two classic names without inventing a new sound.

Lilyann is a modern compound name formed from Lily, the flower name derived from Latin lilium, and Ann, the English form of Hebrew Hannah meaning "grace" or "favor." This blended name emerged in the late 19th or early 20th century, reflecting a fashion for combining two popular names. While not historically traditional, it has been in consistent use in the United States since at least 1916.
