I was wondering, would you know anything about the extra "l" in Lillian? I've been doing some family tree research and come across lots of Lilians with one "l" (in England). It's not currently popular over here but in the past Lilian seems to have been more popular than Lillian wheras in the US Lillian is currently popular (and has been in the past). Off the top of my head I can't think of a surname Lillian though.

"Her real name isn't Nancy," said Peggy. "Her name is Ruth, but Uncle Jim said Amazons were ruthless." Nancy Blacket scowled ferociously. "I'll shiver your timbers for you if you don't stop chattering, Peggy."
