 * Jillian is a variant of Gillian which is the Medieval English feminine form of Julian. Julian is from the Roman name Iulianus, which was derived from Julius which is from a Roman family name that was possibly derived from Greek ἴουλος (ioulos) meaning "downy-bearded". Alternatively, it could be related to the name of the Roman god Jupiter.
 * Oleta means "truth", and is possibly derived from Alethea which is of Greek origin that also means "truth."
 * Georgiann is the combination of George and Ann. George is from the Greek name Γεώργιος (Georgios), which was derived from the Greek word γεωργός (georgos) meaning "farmer, earthworker", itself derived from the elements γῆ (ge) meaning "earth" and ἔργον (ergon) meaning "work". Ann is the English and Manx form of Anne which is the French form of Anna. Anna is derived from Hannah which is from the Hebrew name חַנָּה (Channah) meaning "favour, grace", derived from the root חָנַן (chanan). In the Old Testament this is the name of the wife of Elkanah. Her rival was Elkanah's other wife Peninnah, who had children while Hannah remained barren. After a blessing from Eli she finally became pregnant with Samuel.
