I LOVE Lilia, and it's LIL-ee-ah. Eva, Elena and Amelia are also gorgeous.My pick would be Lilia Elena, personally.

Lilia is a pretty name. I pronounce it like Lily with an "A" at the end. The spelling Lillia may prevent pronunciation issues.

I pronounce it "lil ee uh", and I think it's a lovely name. I prefer it sp. Lylia, personally, but Lilia is just as nice. It has a classy, feminine sound to it, and it isn't popular like other names. Very pretty imo! :-)Eva - nice, though I much prefer Ava
Amelia - dnmsaa...a name I've never been fond of
Elena - a GP for me, when it's pronounced "eh leh nah", not "uh lay nuh"

I love the name Lilia. But I pronounce it LIL-ee-a. It is such a beautiful name and is my favorite out of the names you've picked.-----

I just adore Lilia and I pronounce it lil-ee-uh. I prefer the Lillia spelling with two Ls so I can pronounce it lil-lee-uh. I think Lilia is just beautiful and much less popular than Eva or Amelia or even Elena right now. I also adore the other names you suggested but Lillia and Elena are really standing out to me as perfectly beautiful names and the best of the bunch! :)Actually the combo Lilia Eve would be just darling! WDYT?

I tried so hard to talk my brother into this name.It's pronunced Lil-ee-a. He used Lilyanna instead - which I felt, and still feel, is too close to his other daughter, Brianna. (And they're pronunced with the ah-na sound, not ann-a)I think it's very pretty, but it's up to you.

I like Amelia the best. I don't like Lilia. Eva and Elena are okay but just don't stand out to me.

You and your husband have excellent taste. Lilia ("lily + a") is very elegant, as are your other choices. You can't go wrong with any of them. You're just going to have to have four girls. :-)
