Susanna is a feminine first name. It is not very common in the USA, and is found there predominantly among the American Jewish community. It is the name of at least two women in the Bible. It is often spelled Susannah, although Susanna is the original spelling. It is derived from Σουσάννα (Sousanna), the Greek form of the Hebrew שושנה Shoshannah, which could have been derived from the Aramaic_language. ܫܘܫܢ (Shoshan) means lily (from Lilium family) in Syriac and Assyrian languages. سوسن (Susan) is the Persian spelling of this name. The spelling Susanna is used in Sweden, Italy, the Netherlands and Finland, as well as in the English-speaking world. The spelling Zuzana is used in Czech Republic and Slovakia and spelling Zsuzsanna in Hungary. In nearby Polish it is Zuzanna. Even though very uncommon, it is also spelled Susana in Spain and Portugal, where it is more common.
