What is the meaning of the name Suzy ?

The baby name Suzy is a girl name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced SOO-zee.

Suzy is English, French, Greek, Hebrew in Origin.

Suzy is an English and French diminutive of Susan and Suzanne, names in the Susanna family. The chain runs through Greek Sousanna to Biblical Hebrew Shoshannah, from shoshan or shoshannah, a word for a lily and sometimes a rose-like or lotus-shaped flower. The final -y is the familiar English nickname ending, while the z reflects the voiced consonant heard in Suzanne and in many modern spellings.

Susan and Susanna entered Christian naming through Susanna in the Greek additions to Daniel, giving the family steady use in medieval and early modern Europe. Suzy became a stand-alone given name chiefly in the English-speaking world and France, especially alongside mid-century nicknames such as Susie and Suzie. Bearers include singer Suzy Bogguss, journalist Suzy Menkes, and Korean performer Bae Su-ji, known professionally as Suzy; recent usage is comparatively uncommon.
