Liliwen is Breton in Origin.
A modern Welsh feminine name formed from lili "lily" and -wen, the soft-mutated feminine of gwen "white, fair, blessed." The result is "white/fair lily" or "blessed lily," a compound that blends floral imagery with the longstanding Celtic ideal of brightness and good fortune. Lili is a Welsh borrowing ultimately from Latin lilium, while gwen descends from Proto-Celtic *windos "white, holy," giving the name deep linguistic roots beneath its fresh feel.
Liliwen appears chiefly in contemporary Wales rather than medieval records, rising modestly with the late 20th century revival of Welsh-language names and remaining rare beyond the UK. Variants and spellings include Lilywen (anglicized) and Lilwen; affectionate short forms are Lili/Lily, Wen, and Wenna. Related -wen names such as Gwen, Olwen, Arianwen, and Bronwen share the same feminine ending. The masculine parallel would typically use -wyn, but Liliwen itself is distinctly feminine.
Liliwen is exceptionally rare. There are only 1 recorded use on record, spread over 1 country.
