Lili is nice, though I prefer Lily or even Lillie. Absolutely still reminds me of the flower though, there’s no escaping it.

I think it looks very European perhaps French or Spanish. It’s rather pretty but as an English speaker I prefer the Lily or Lilly spelling. It’s much better than Lillie though.

It looks incomplete. No, it does not remove the floral element.

Looks French.

I kinda think it seems too light or babyish, as a full name, because it's got that repeated-syllable thing going on, like Coco or Gigi. But would be cute as a nick.

I think it removes the floweriness a bit, yeah - and looks nicer than Lilly, by far.
But I think names are mostly heard rather than read, so I'm not sure it makes a huge difference.

I've never seen it used in English. Lily, yes; Lilli, as a nn for Elizabeth, yes. Would you want to remove the floral identity, or would you rather keep it?

I understand that it's a conventional spelling in some countries e.g. Armenia, Slovenia, Hungary.
But Lili ends so abruptly... And I just got used to Lily and even Lillie, so they look more complete, prettier, imho.
