Susanka Origin and Meaning

The name Susanka is a girl's name.

Susanka is a feminine name with Slavic origins, likely derived as a diminutive form of Susana or Zuzana (variants of Susan or Susannah). The root name comes from the Hebrew Shoshana meaning 'lily' or 'rose'. The '-ka' suffix is common in Eastern European languages like Czech, Polish, and Russian, often denoting affection or smallness. As a first name, Susanka is quite uncommon in English-speaking countries, giving it an exotic and distinctive quality. The name has a musical flow with its rhythmic syllables while maintaining connections to the more familiar Susan. It might appeal to parents with Slavic heritage or those seeking a unique name with recognizable roots and a soft, feminine sound.
