Allen says her parents, Alison Owen and comedian Keith Allen, decided Billie didn’t suit her anymore, changing her name to Lily.
“I was called Billie, and then my mum was like, ‘Nah, she doesn’t look like a Billie, she’s a Lily’,” the Not Fair singer said.
Coincidentally, Oliver has Billie as her middle name, sharing that she was named after Billie Holiday.
Eilish explained her name was inspired by her late grandfather, whom she’d never met before.

“I’ve been ghosted for sure. It was literally unbelievable. To this day, he never texted me again. I was like, ‘Did you die? Did you literally die?'”
“It was somebody I’d known for years and had a plan, the day of, on the phone, making a plan. This is my address, be there at 3pm – never heard from him again. Ever. I couldn’t believe it.”
Eilish called the person who ghosted her a “little pathetic man,” revealing she discovered he was alive and well, dating someone else.
“I was like ‘oh’. I didn’t know people still did that. I genuinely didn’t know people did that. What a f—ing little pathetic man. What a tiny little man.”
