== Charactah Account ==
Lilo is a young, orphaned Hawaiian girl who lives with her sister Nani and is Stitch's owner and best friend.
Lilo and Nani had lost their parents in a relatively recent car accident. Lilo is a social outcast among her peers by the time the film begins, and her relationship with Nani has become strained. After becoming at risk of being separated from her only remaining family member, Lilo wishes for a friend on a "shooting star".note  At the shelter Nani takes her to, Lilo finds an unusual blue "dog" and adopts him as "Stitch".
Despite his bad behavior, Lilo sees Stitch as a friend and, under social worker Cobra Bubbles's orders, tries to make him a "model citizen", though her efforts don't seem to work. It gets worse for her when Stitch and Jumba get into a fight that destroys her house. Rejecting Stitch (who reveals his true alien form to her) for ruining everything, the two are taken by Gantu, though Stitch escapes. She gets rescued by Stitch afterward, then saves him from being taken away from her by showing her adoption paper to the Grand Councilwoman, who puts him under "exile" and makes Lilo his warden. This allows Lilo to stay with her sister and their new family with Jumba, Pleakley, and Stitch.

== Trivia ==
* "Lilo" can mean "lost" or "the generous one" in Hawaiian, hence her generosity to others in the series, and possibly her loneliness.
** Lilo's name may also be a reference to the character Leeloo from the 1997 movie The Fifth Element.
* It is quite possible that both Lilo and Nani were named after Queen Liliuokalani, the last ruling monarch of Hawaii. Lilo has the same first three letters of the monarch's name, while Nani has the last three letters of her name.
** If this truly is indeed the case, then that would make their connection to the song "Aloha ʻOe" that much more meaningful, as they, as a whole, represent the last Queen of Hawaii, who wrote the song.
* Despite not appearing in the show itself (as the show ran for about one year before the movie came out), Lilo was featured with Stitch in some online games for the television series House of Mouse.
* Lilo was five years old in the original story.
* In the monarch at the end of the movie, Lilo has seven candles on her birthday cake, meaning she was six for the majority of the movie. (This could also mean that she is seven years old for the Lilo & Stitch franchise.)
* Lilo is the fourth heroine to be seen praying, the first being Snow White, the second being Penny, and the third being Esmeralda. However, the movie has Lilo saying that she is "making a wish" instead of praying.
* A stuffed toy Dumbo can be seen on Lilo's easel.
* Lilo likes to be messy, which causes problems for the adults around her when she makes such a big mess.
* At least three times in the television series, when an experiment is christened, Lilo gives a ridiculous reason for its name after someone else gives a logical one:
** For Shoe, who had a horseshoe-shaped growth that affects its luck ability, Lilo said he needed shoes, despite the fact that none of the experiments wear shoes.
** For Wishy-Washy, who grants wishes, Lilo presumably named it that because it had "wish" in the name.
** For Link, who binds together arguing people with sticky blue gunk that only mud can remove, Lilo said he was named after Linkenstein, a zombie president.
* In "Spooky", Lilo's worst fear is clowns.
* Lilo enjoys feeding peanut butter sandwiches to Pudge the fish and cleaning his grove for him. Since her parents died in a car accident, where rain made the road more treacherous, it is possible the reason she wants to appease Pudge is that she believes he controls the weather, and that if she continues to treat him in such a manner, a similar accident to the one that killed her parents won't happen again.
* When Lilo was in disguise in the original series, she pretended to be a girl whose parents own a pineapple factory. This may have been the inspiration for Penny in Stitch!.
