This has been on my "Favorites List" since 1982. It was a very unique name in 1982. I like the middle name Renee with it - Jillian Renee. So adorable!

My name is Jillian. When I was a child I was called Jill, or Jillybean. Both were great, I always liked my name. I remember when I was 16, I wrote Jillian on my first job application because I thought it sounded more sophisticated, and I never went back to Jill. I love it. My middle name is Tyler. Also like that. Would be a good pen name. I reccomend spelling it with a J, Gillian..is a little confusing.
