So, we all pretty much realize that Lily is Mal’s long lost child. Well, I was just pointed out how the writers might have picked the name “Lily” in relation to Mal in the first place. They might have got the idea from the Song of Solomon 2 from the Bible.

Like a lily among the thorns,
so is my darling among the maidens.

This would tie back to the connection between Mal and thorns in the Sleeping Beauty lore.
