Suhey is in Origin.
Suhey is a modern Hispanic given name, most often feminine, whose form likely reflects a Spanish-Caribbean adaptation of Arabic Suhaila (feminine of Suhail) and related Turkish/Persian Süheyla. The underlying Arabic root s‑h‑l conveys “gentle, easy, smooth,” and Suhail/Suhaila also names the bright star Canopus, yielding meanings such as “gentle” or “star-like, luminous.” In Spanish and English contexts it is commonly pronounced soo-HAY.
Usage is concentrated in Puerto Rico, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and Latino communities in the United States from the late 20th century onward; it remains uncommon but recognizable. Variant spellings and cognates include Suheila, Suheyla, Suheyla, Soheila/Soheyla, Süheyla, Suheily/Suheili, and the related Suha, Suhail/Suhayl. Near-phonetic Latin American variants such as Sugey/Sugei also appear. The concise, two-syllable shape and cross-cultural resonance give Suhey a modern, cosmopolitan feel.
