Jillyan

Strengthen baby’s celestial side with the name Jillyan. This feminine moniker is a fun spin on the English Jillian and Gillian, which, in turn, comes from Julian. A variant of the Latin Julius, it means “dedicated to Jove,” connecting baby to the Roman god of the sky and thunder, also called Jupiter. Thanks to its connection to Jove, Jillyan can also come from the Latin word iuvenis, meaning “youthful,” and the Greek ioulos, meaning “downy-bearded.” With their soft hair and youthful spirit, baby will wear the name Jillyan with pride.
