PHYLLIS

PHYLLIS  

Gender: F
Origin: Greek
Meaning: "green bough"

Used by classical poets for the idealized pastoral maiden, but its twenty-first-century image is closer to Phyllis Diller. Phyllida is a variation that sounds at once more old-fashioned and more stylish.

International Variations:
Phillis, Philis (French) Filide (Italian) Filis (Spanish)
