Liliom Origin and Meaning
The name Liliom is a girl's name of Hungarian origin meaning "lily".
This rare, unisex name may appeal to those who love Leah, Lillian, Lily, and Lumi, but also those wanting to honor a family William or Liam. It comes from the Hungarian word for "lily", and has been used since the 9th or 10th century. Most notably, it appeared in the 1909 play Liliom by Ferenc Molnár (along with the subsequent musical Carousel), and while it appeared on a male character, it has been used (sparingly) across the genders.
