I agree that Lily is a lovely name, simple and elegant like you've said.As for popularity though, there were 9545 Lily/Lilly/Lillies born in the U.S. in 2006, plus 9814 Lillian/Lilliana/Lilian/Lilianas who may use the nn Lily. After adding all that up, I would say it is even more popular than I had orginally believed. (All info found on the SSA website.)
Although I have never met a little Lily myself, it may simbly not be a common name in my area or yours. It is a popular name overall though, which shouldn't stop anyone from enjoying its beauty.

I know one girl my age, and one little girl name Lily, so at least it's not that popular in my circles. I think Lily is beautiful and so feminine. I would love it on a little girl born in the spring. It's also my boyfriend's number one favorite name.
