Thread Name: Lyr Req: Consider the Lily / Consider the Lilies
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Consider the Lilly
Q: interesting about the old spelling of 'Lilly.' Actually that looks more natural. I can't think of any other words like 'lily.' But in the double-L school we have silly, filly, Billy, chilly and of course, willie-nillie.

So why not 'lilly'?
