It's cute! I would spell it without the "h"

I like Susana (this spelling). Susanna is alright and Susannah is definetly not my style.

No, i wouldn't assume Susie.

When I hear Susannah I think of the song Oh Susannah. I slightly prefer the spelling Susannah to Susanna but it really doesn't make a difference to me. And I wouldn't assume Susie.

it just makes me think of the song

I don't mind Susannah, I think it's very graceful. Susanna isn't so nice, it looks more Italian or Spanish than English to me, and looks like it's missing its 'h'! :-)

I don't like Susie much myself, or Sue - I'd probably assume Susannah unless told otherwise.

I quite like the Dutch and Scandinavian nicknames, Sanna / Sanne :-)

I know a woman with that name, but she spells it Susanna. She doesn't go by Susie. Every calls her by her full name and it doesn't seem to be a problem. I do prefer the shorter spelling over the longer Susannah (which seems unnecessarily fussy).

I have to admit, though, it does make me think of the song... Oh, Susannah,
Oh don't you cry for me, I come from Alabama with my banjo on my knee...

I love the name Susannah spelled this way. If I met someone named Susannah I wouldn't automatically assume they went by Susie but I do like Susie as a nn or Susan.

I adore the name Susannah, right now it's my number one name. I imagine a blonde girl, southern and sophisticated. I dislike it spelled Susanna.. Susannah is the traditional spelling.. A lot of people think that's its an elaboration of Susan, but really Susan is just the short form of Susannah (or so I read) I wouldn't assume a Susannah went by Susie. My sister is named Susannah and goes by Susannah. I adore the nns Annie and Anna though.

I love the name Susanna. I only like it spelled without the 'h.' I would not automatically call her Susie. Susanne is nice as well.

I think it's gorgeous. But for some reason, I only like it spelled Susannah. Any other way looks incomplete (without the "h"), or wrong (without 1 "n" or with a "z"). I also don't like nn's Susie or Sue for it at all. I prefer Anna.

Oddly enough, I quite like it....

I love, love Susanna (and yes, the -h does matter!). One of the nice classy names I like, and I think it would make a genuine sibset with Thomas.

Susannah is all right as well, but I prefer Susanna. And as for the nn, I can't really imagine Susie above toddler age. Sue is an option, but I like Sanna the best.

I wouldn't call a Susannah Susie unless asked to (nicknames are nmsaa either).
I think Susanna looks a bit unfinished.
I like the forms Shoshannah, Suzanne et Susan.
