What Does the Name Lilybelle Mean?
Lilybelle is a compound given name used in English, made by joining Lily and Belle. Its customary meaning is "beautiful lily." The first element comes from Latin lilium ("lily"), a word taken from Greek krinon, which is often thought to come from an older Mediterranean language rather than from Greek roots. English borrowed the flower word through Old English lilie and Old French lis. The second element, Belle, is the French adjective meaning "beautiful," from Latin bella, the feminine form of bellus. Joined this way, the two parts read literally as "lily" plus "beautiful," which reverses the ordinary English word order of the phrase "beautiful lily"; the meaning given above is the customary reading of the pair rather than a translation of a single older name.
Lilybelle Name History & Origins
The two halves of Lilybelle have separate histories that long predate the compound. Lily appears as an English given name from at least the 16th century, when flower names taken from Latin and French became common; it was also used as a short form of Elizabeth. Belle entered English from French, where it is the feminine form of the adjective "beautiful," and for centuries it served mainly as a short form of names such as Isabella and Annabelle before it came into use as an independent given name in the 19th century.
Lilybelle belongs to the wider English habit of double names, in which a familiar first name is paired with a second element as a middle or hyphenated name; spellings such as Lily Belle, Lily-Belle, and Lillibelle represent the same pairing. The similar-looking Lilibet is a pet form of Elizabeth, not a variant of Lilybelle, and the two forms should not be treated as sharing an origin.
