Lilianna

What Lilianna means
Where Lilianna comes from and what it has meant to the people who carry it.
Lilianna comes from the Latin lilium, the word for lily. The flower and the name spread together across Europe, and Lilianna itself is a longer form of Lilian, the older variant. The short meaning has never wandered far from the garden bed: lily.
The name bends into other shapes without much effort. Liliana loses a single letter and turns a little softer. Among family and school friends it shortens to Lila or Lilka. Lilian has been given to boys and girls alike in different countries, so one root can serve more than one child.
The sound is small and open.
Read a class register in a Polish school and Lilianna will sit somewhere near a Liliana, an Amelia, an occasional Lila. Different spellings, one plant behind them. Trace any of these forms back far enough and you reach the same Latin lilium, the lily.
