Lilie is English in Origin.
Lilie is a modern feminine given name corresponding to English Lily/Lillie, ultimately from Latin lilium via Greek leírion, meaning "lily." The spelling matches the German and Czech common noun Lilie "lily," so it feels especially natural in Central Europe. Across Christian art and heraldry (see the fleur-de-lis), the lily symbolizes purity, innocence, and renewal, associations that inform the name’s gentle, luminous meaning.
As a personal name, lily-based forms blossomed in the late 19th century’s craze for floral names in Britain and the United States, with renewed popularity since the 1990s. Lilie functions both as an independent name and as a pet form of Lilia, Lillian/Liliane, or Liliana. Close variants include Lily, Lillie, Lilly, Lili, and Lilee; cognates and relatives include Lilja (Nordic/Slavic), Lilia/Liliya, Líle (Irish), and French Lys/Lis.
