My first thought - and try as I might to imagine enjoying this name, and I am trying, the thought never quite goes away: What in creation is an "everlily"?
It's Everly + Lily, smushed, like Aurorain or Emersonnet.
Or maybe it's like a soonflower, a veryvine, or elserose. Something sort of Lewis Carroll, or ... who am I thinking of?
It's just not as namey or strong an invention as Caemlyn. It's very pretty sounding and looking, yeah - but the fact of the nonsense compound word is too heavy. It's sort of psychedelic. Two names, Ever Lily, would be nicer. Or, something like Everlilah is alright.
