Jilliann

Jilliann is a sweet alternative to names like Jillian and Gillian, extending its n ending so it delightfully lingers on the ear. This feminine name derives from the Latin Julius, whose precise origins are still debated today. Celebrating the different stages of life, Jilliann means “youthful” as well as “downy-bearded,” bringing to mind a spritely tot and an old, wise sage. Taking a more mythical approach, Jilliann could also mean “sacred to Jupiter,” the chief god of the Roman pantheon, placing your little one of great importance among the gods in Olympos.
