What is the meaning of the name Suzanne ?

The baby name Suzanne is a girl name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced soo-ZAN.

Suzanne is French, Greek, Hebrew, Latin in Origin.

Suzanne is the French counterpart of Susanna, transmitted through Latin Susanna and Greek Sousanna from Hebrew שׁוֹשַׁנָּה, Šōšannāh. The Hebrew name rests on šōšan or šūšan, a word for a lily, later also applied to the rose in Modern Hebrew. Its earliest recoverable personal-name shape is biblical Hebrew Šōšannāh, with the feminine -āh ending attached to the floral noun.

In Christian Europe the name was reinforced by Susanna of the Book of Daniel, whose story appears in Catholic and Orthodox biblical tradition, and by saints bearing the Latin form. Suzanne became established in medieval and early modern France; Suzanne, Duchess of Bourbon, is a 16th-century example. English usage increased before 1900 and peaked in the United States in the 1950s–1960s. Related forms include Susanne in German and Scandinavian use, Spanish Susana, and Hebrew Shoshana.
