Wdyt of Lilia?

I have always found it very pretty, but I've always been into more classic names, and I'm not sure if Lilia is considered classic?

I love Lydia too, but love the softness of Lilia, is it too soft though, or hard to say?

Does it sound nice with big sister Isabel? I love the combo Lilia Sofia Rose (Sofia and Rose (Rosa) being family names).

Thank you. :)

I find Lilia soft to the point of being insubstantial. I like Lydia much better.

Lilia would go well with Isabel, but again I think Lydia would go well with Isabel too, maybe even more so.

It feels like something is missing, but it is quite appealing.

I love Lilia! I don't know if I'd consider it a classic since as far as I know it's always been very uncommon, but it has a classic-ish feel.

Lilia Sofia Rose is ridiculously gorgeous. I don't like Lilia and Isabel as sisters because Lily and Isabel are both forms of Elizabeth (Lily is an old Elizabeth nickname), but that's probably just me.

I think it's annoyingly frilly.

Lilia is definitely a classic. It's gorgeous. I love it, and I love it with Isabel.

Lilia and Lydia are both lovely names. I don't think that Lilia is too soft or hard to say. It's a very feminine name, but it's not a bad thing at all. It has a similar feel to Dahlia, which is one of my faves. Both have softness and femininity without being overly fussy and frilly.

Isabel and Lilia go together well.

I'm really into classic names, but I like Lilia a lot more than Lydia. I think it sounds classic, and it's not hard to say at all. Lilia sounds nice with Isabel—nicer than Lydia IMO. Lilia Sofia Rose is lovely.

I love Lilia and I think Lilia Sofia Rose would sound very nice with sister Isabel!

ditto!

I completely agree and to add:

I like Lydia as well but it just isn't as nice with Isabel at all.

I LOVE the name Lilia! It's so pretty and feminine and while it is soft and floaty, I don't think that's a bad thing. Lydia is gorgeous too, but I think Isabel and Lilia make a nicer sister set.
