Re: Lileas - "God is my oath" or "lily flower"?
in reply to a message by Dawn
Ah this is a bit confusing because no one can seem to agree on the origin of Lillian, even here it says (and I quote) "Probably originally a diminutive of ELIZABETH. It may also be considered an elaborated form of LILY, from the Latin word lilium."From this I'd take Lillian to be a diminutive of Elizabeth*~Loads of Randomness~*
