Susannah

Susannah, because it's balanced. To me, Susanna looks unfinished and open. Susannah is contained nicely between two bookends.

I can never quite decide, and I flip-flop on this one quite a bit. Today I'm thinking Susanna. Oh! But I love the antique vibe of Susannah. Ugh, can't decide. Maybe reading other people's posts will help me decide once and for all.

Susanna looks better to me (something about the 'nah' is very unappealing). Also, it's closer to the original Greek, Sousanna, and I am a name snob, after all. ;-) As an aside, I read somewhere that Susanna is and has been the more common spelling in the US while Susannah has been the more common spelling in the UK.

I almost always prefer an H at the end of a name when it's an option. It makes it look prettier and more complete.

I like Susannah, I like to so much better. Susanna just doesn't look complete.

Susanna is cleaner and brighter than stuffy Susannah.

But I almost always choose an H on the end if possible, just looks more pleasing to me. (Hannah over Hanna, Adah over Ada, Norah over Nora)

Probably just because I'm used to this spelling. Susanna and Susanne are common names in Germany.

I don't know how the h makes a big difference, but it does. Susannah seems softer, warmer and kinder than Susanna.

I've always had a bit of a soft spot for the name Susannah.

I think I prefer Susannah, but Susanna is nice too. I like Zannah / Zanna as a nickname for Susannah / Susanna, but I prefer Zanna to Zannah, so in that case, Susanna would actually make more sense even though I normally prefer Susannah.
