Lilly, funnily enough!!I know this goes against popular opinion (actually, ALL opinion), but I prefer the name Lilly! I think Lily looks TOO MUCH like the flower (though actually I still like Lily, I just prefer Lilly).*

Lilly looks like someone misspelled the flower. Lily is simple and classic. Lili or Lillie is fine as a nn for Lillian or Liliana, etc.

LilyIt's simpler, and it's how everyone is going to assume it's spelt anyway.

Frilly Lilly is unnecessary - the extra L does nothing but would cause trouble on a daily basis. Lily is neater and tidier.

Lily. Lilly drives me nuts. I can stomach Lillie as a nickname for Lillian, but I still prefer plain old Lily.

LilyWhen a name is based on a word, it should be spelled like that word. Anything less than that looks silly or uneducated. The only time I could get behind Lilly would be if it were short for something longer like Lillian, and even then I think Lily is better.My daughter’s middle name is Lily, btw, after my ex-husband’s favourite flower.

LilyLily is a nice name that benefits colossally from coinciding with the name of an elegant flower. Lilly seems childishly frilly and silly to me, as a respelling of Lily. Besides, it is a surname, most recognizable as the name of a sometimes notorious drug company.

Lily, it's my favorite name in the world and spelled like the flower.Lilly looks trendy and heavy to me.If I had to choose another spelling I would first go for Lillie which at least looks balanced and not so childish.

LilyI've met a Lilly, I've met a Lily, neither got along well with me, I'm choosing Lily because Lilly looks clunky.
