Suzan Origin and Meaning

The name Suzan is a girl's name.

Suzan is a feminine name that represents a variation of Susan, which derives from the Hebrew name Shoshana meaning 'lily' or 'rose.' This alternate spelling maintains the traditional pronunciation while giving the name a slightly distinctive appearance. Throughout the mid-20th century, Suzan saw modest usage as parents sought subtle variations on popular classics. The name carries the same gentle, timeless quality as Susan but with a more contemporary look due to the 'z' spelling. While less common than Susan, Suzan remains recognizable and straightforward. The name conveys sophistication and simplicity simultaneously, appealing to parents who appreciate traditional names with subtle modern touches. Suzan's biblical connections and floral meaning add depth to this elegant variation.
