Siusan
Siusan Origin and Meaning
Siusan is a feminine name representing the Irish Gaelic form of Susan. Derived ultimately from the Hebrew Shoshannah meaning 'lily' or 'rose,' this distinctive spelling reflects traditional Irish pronunciation. While much less common than the standard Susan or Suzanne forms, Siusan (typically pronounced SHOO-san) offers a direct connection to Irish heritage and linguistic traditions. The name enjoyed brief recognition during the Celtic revival interest of the 1980s-1990s but remains relatively rare. Siusan provides an authentic cultural alternative for families with Irish roots seeking to honor their heritage while maintaining a connection to the familiar Susan namesake. The name carries the same gentle and timeless qualities as its more common variants while offering a distinctive cultural identity.
