Lylyth is in Origin.

Lylyth is a modern ornamental respelling of Lilith, a name rooted in Hebrew lîlît, likely connected to Akkadian lilītu “night spirit” and related to Hebrew laylāh “night.” In Jewish lore and medieval texts such as the Alphabet of Ben Sira, Lilith appears as a nocturnal, liminal figure sometimes portrayed as Adam’s first wife; consequently the name saw little everyday use in traditional communities. As a given name it was revived in the late 19th and 20th centuries.

Contemporary popularity has risen through feminist reinterpretation and pop‑culture visibility (notably the Lilith Fair), with Lylyth chosen for a distinctive visual twist. The commonly cited meaning is “night,” “night creature,” or “belonging to the night.” Variants and spellings include Lilith (standard), Lilit (Armenian), Lillith, Lileth, and Lylith; short forms Lily, Lil, and Lili occur in English‑speaking contexts. Lylyth may be pronounced like Lilith, with preference varying by family.
