About Susann
Susann is a feminine name that represents a variation of Susan, which derives from the Hebrew name Shoshana, meaning 'lily' or 'rose.' This particular spelling with the double 'n' ending gives the classic name a slightly distinctive Germanic or Scandinavian flair. Susann reached its peak popularity in the United States during the 1950s and 1960s but has become less common in recent decades. The name carries the same pleasant associations as Susan—intelligence, reliability, and warmth—while the unique spelling provides a subtle differentiation. Susann balances familiarity with individuality, making it recognizable yet somewhat uncommon. The name has literary connections through American author Jacqueline Susann, adding a creative dimension to its character.
Pronounced soo-ZANN.
As of October 2026, Susann ranked #14735 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #696 in 1943.
