Etimología (English)

Inherited from francés medio: lis

Inherited from francés antiguo: lis

Inherited from latín: lilium

In summary

Inherited from Middle French lis, from Old French lis, generalised from the nominative singular and accusative plural of earlier lil, from Latin lilium. The final /s/ survives from the Middle French pausal pronunciation (as in fils, ours, os, tous, etc.), but fleur de lis was formerly also pronounced with /li/.
