Hm, in Japanese, it always depends on the kanjis used to write the name. Yuri's kanjis don't mean "lily" but rather what is said above. The kanjis for Yuri meaning "lily" would be 百合. That is how the name is mostly written tho. So you are not wrong at all.

If Yuri was written in hiragana (ゆり) or katakana (ユリ), the meaning would be unknown and most people would add the "lily" meaning.
