Susanna is Egyptian, Greek, Hebrew, Latin in Origin.
Susanna is the Latin and English form of Greek Sousanna, written in biblical Greek as Σουσάννα, representing the earlier Hebrew name Shoshannah, שׁוֹשַׁנָּה. Its root is Hebrew shoshan, a noun for a lily or lily-like flower; modern Hebrew also uses it for rose. Many etymologies trace the word farther back to Egyptian sšn, lotus, a culturally prominent water lily. The doubled -n- reflects Greek and Latin adaptation of the Hebrew ending rather than a separate suffix.
Biblical associations carried the name into Christian Europe: Susanna appears in the Additions to Daniel as the woman vindicated by Daniel, and in Luke as a follower who supported Jesus’ ministry. Medieval English usage was sporadic, then Reformation naming favored biblical forms, especially Susan. Susanna remained common in Italy, Sweden, Finland, and the Netherlands, while Susana, Suzanne, Zuzana, Zuzanna, and Zsuzsanna developed in Romance, French, Czech-Slovak, Polish, and Hungarian contexts.
