Something like Lilliya He'll me remember

[justhayley]

I heard a little girl being called in the park today her name was something like Lilliya it was so pretty but don't think it was quite that. I left the park and can't for the life of me remember what the name actually was now.
It was Lilly something and ended in an A sound.
I may have totally misheard but are there any names that you know that could be the one I'm thinking of? Having serious baby brain .
Also how would you spell Lilliya / lilia ?? And is it actually a name.

Gosh hate when my brain stops working I know I sound pretty air headed in this post lol

Thank you

And yes the thread title should have said Help - oh gosh I'm getting worse

The most popular spelling would be Lilia but you can have Lillia. It's a lovely name.

There's Lilia in Polish, nn Lilka.

Lillian?
Lydia?

Lilja was one of my top names if ds was a baby girl. (It's Icelandic/Scandinavian)

We used to know a Liliana

We also know a Milia

Thanks all.
I just went on the mothercare app where you can listen to the pronunciation of names - lilia was pronounced Lee Lee A as opposed to Lily A is that right?

I know a Lelia, pronounced Leel-ee-ah or sometimes Leel-yah

I know a polish girl named Lilia pronounced like Lilian but without the 'n' .

Its very very pretty

I know a lilliana, very pretty name.

Pronounced li - lee - ar - na

An old-fashioned Scottish name is Lilias (Lil-ee-us).

Yes it was probably Lilia, which is very pretty. Many moons ago one of the professional dancers on Strictly Come Dancing was Lilia Kopylova, she hailed from Russia I believe so I think the name also East European roots as well as Scandinavian I think.

Pronunciation for me would be Lil-ee-ah.

I like the spelling 'Lilya'.

It can be pronounced Lil-yah or Lily-ah, however you spell it.

Lilia in Polish, Russian, Italian, etc would be pronounced Lee-lee-a.

I like this version much more than Lily, Lillian, etc.

Liala - pronounced Lee Ay La?

Surely, Liala = Lee Ah La?

It's Italian.
It was invented as a pen-name by famous Italian romantic novelist Amalia Negretti (d. 1995). Vintage pic of her here: it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liala

You can hear Italian pronounciation here: www.forvo.com/word/liala/

I have 2 friends with Dds called Lilia pronounced lil-ee-a they are both Hungarian.

I no an Ellia pronounced el ee ya which I think is a beautiful name!!
