[Opinions] Prefer Jillian!
Unfortunately the name Jillian only "popped" for me when a woman called Jillian Meagher was murdered in Melbourne recently :(. But Jillian is just.. so lovely though! It's like water trickling in a brook.I, like, you, never liked Lily. Those two L's so close to each other are extremely awkward. The extra syllable of Lillian helps balance it out a bit (I think that any awkward sound can be eased by adding extra syllables - Cecile is fixed by Cecilia, Elle is fixed by Ellen). However, my boyfriend has an ancestor called Lillian nn Lillie, and I have to admit I was darn near won over by that spelling.
