Susanna

I think Susanna is a gorgeous name. I love its length, classiness, and meaning “rose.” I like that it is a biblical name, and it has many potential nicknames, such as “Sue”, “Susie”, “Anna”, etc. I also think it ages flawlessly, as I can picture this name on a female of any age. Overall, I think Susanna is a beautiful name.

A happy middle ground between all of its other variants. This version is the best.

This name is spunky.🤤.

I adore Susanna! I prefer, MUCH prefer it to Susan. I just love how elegant, floral, feminine, and melodic it is. It has some history too. I’m kinda surprised it’s not more popular. Susanna is a pretty, fresh, fun, and lively name. It also gives me the vibes of maybe a 60s sex symbol.

Oh, and Susanna without the -h, please. Susannah isn’t bad or anything, but it is fine without it.

Nice to see this name get featured as Name of the Day. Personally I think it’s lovely and deserves to be used more. Very attractive name and I certainly wouldn’t object to having a daughter called it.

Just as long as it’s spelled like this though - no h on the end.

My family members' name. Everyone just calls her Sanna. I think it's pretty, unique too.

It's so charming, who couldn't like it?

I picture an English woman from the 1600s or 1700s, or a farm girl from the 1800s or Early 1900s. But, it also has more of a futuristic sound to it. Like, it could still appeal to parents of today. I like that a lot. I don't know why this name isn't popular, it should be. For real, come on guys? It's Susanna!

Savannah is also a nice name, and that would be my alternative. I prefer Susanna to Susannah because Susanna is the original spelling.

It’s a cute name.

Very pretty! A more youthful-sounding alternative to Susan, but it fits all ages.

Been in my top 5 for as long as I can remember.

Makes me think of a country girl.

I like this better then Suzanna because for this a nickname can be Susan.

I like my name. People can call me Sue or Susan, just don't call me the other "cute" diminutive Susie. I hate it. Growing up with people teasing me with SuziQ, or SuziCucumber, or SusieSnowflake... I hated that. Especially as I was a short but really cute little girl & people were always saying those things to me while patting me on the head as I sat in my wheelchair or was walking about on crutches. As I am now considerably older I still prefer Susan or Sue. I'll deck anyone who calls me Susie. Suzi (Suzanne) is my niece. I also think my name is a strong one & one to be proud of.

I love it! It's a reasonable size, but not too long, and it can fit for so many ages. I've thought of some nicknames like Anna, Susie/Suzie, or Sue. It's a favorite, and not unknown, definitely.

When I was little, I thought this was an old lady name. But now I LOVE IT! The nicknames Sus and Susie are cute!

Beautiful name I do hope it gets used more in English speaking countries :-)

Susanna is my name, and I love it! As of 2016 I am a young teenager, and I've never met another Susanna my age. I am surprised that it is not more popular, because (yes, I'm biased) it's old-fashioned, which makes it sound classic, yet it is similar to many more modern names, especially "Anna". People are forever spelling it wrong with H's and Z's, but I don't mind. I HATE the nickname Susie, though, so I go by Sue. As for the song "O Susanna", I get occasionally teased about it, but I don't mind as it is usually my older brother. Personally I don't think that you should decide against the name Susanna just because of the song.

Wow, I'm surprised this name isn't even on the top 1000! It is very timeless and fitting of a woman of any age!

Susanna is a really, really pretty name! :D.

The name Susanna was given to 183 baby girls born in the US in 2012.

This beautiful name reminds me of sunshine. I find it hard to choose between this and Susannah, wavering from week to week! Both are delectable.
The nickname Sukey, coined in the eighteenth century, is so cute.

I love this name! (O Susanna, don't you cry for me, for I come from Alabama with my banjo on my knee...) :)

The name "Susanna" makes me think of a bright spring day with birds singing. I just really love it! (Susannah too) Wish I'd had a second daughter, so I could use this name.

This name is not my favourite as it sounds a like a too dragged out version of Suzanne. Even though Suzanne is my name I'm honestly not biased as I dislike it but compared to Susanna I think I prefer it.

I think this is a lovely, natural name. It might be old-fashioned, but that makes it classic. I don't like Sue or Suze for nicknames though. I would use Sanna or Anna.

This is a beautiful name with a lovely meaning and history, but I don't think I'd use it for a child because of the song Oh Susanna. The poor girl would just get teased too much.

I can't believe that this isn't in the top 1000. It's a gorgeous name. As solid as Susan, but with the added frill of an -anna ending.

This is my name! I didn't used to like it, but I do now. It wouldn't be my first choice, but I do think it's prettier than "Susan". Growing up, I never met another Susanna, but I did hear the name fairly often in historical records and 18th-19th century literature. It doesn't sound, to me, like a 17-year old's name, so at school I'm almost exclusively called "Sue". In fifth grade ( I think) I added an "h" to my name, but decided after a while to just accept my given name.

Lovely name, isn't it? It's my English name when I'm having an English lesson. So classy.

I love this name. It's very classy sounding. It's also my name and my great great grandmothers.

Wonderful. So soft and lovely. Susie is a cute name for a little girl, too.

I think this name is very elegant and stylish plus it's biblical as well but not too heavy or Jewish like Zilpah, etc.

Very pretty name, am a bit surprised it isn't used more right now with the popularity of Anna.

Personal impression: very kind-hearted.

I can't hear this name without thinking of the song 'O Susanna'.
