Lilly for short.

I like it because "Lilith" was in the ancient hebrew bible as the first woman (not EVE!). So ran away from Adam because she didn't want to be his subordinate

I'm not religous, but I like the story.

I think that name is AWESOME! I also think it is wonderful that you know the history behind the name. Since a person has to live with their name forever, that's important. Best wishes!

That is a really interesting story! I have never hear that before. I like Lilith and I think Lilly is also cute. My mom was dying for me to name my daugher Lilly, but we ended up calling her Annie. Good luck - it's so hard to pick a name!

Great. I'm always afraid of these questions because people have such whacky names picked out for kids. But Lilith/ Lily are actually nice names.

Lilith is pretty, but what about lillian? Lilith sounds old. parents have to sometimes think about what thier kids will hear and all the jokes that go along with thier names.

What are you talking about? The first woman was Eve. Where in the ancient Hebrew bible does it say anything about a lillith? Can you please give me a source if you can? thanks
And for the name- very cute. I like Lilly better than Lillith though

Lilith kinda sounds like a name for an older woman...I like Lilly on its own though

Lilly is cute but Lilith sounds kind of old fashioned.

The name has some history to it, if u dont know maby you should look it up your self maby you'll learn something, but if your asking far as it being some ones name, its a womens name.
