feminine · English origin
Suz is an English feminine name functioning as an informal short form of Susan or Susanna, which derive ultimately from the Hebrew name Shoshannah, meaning lily or rose. The full forms gained widespread use across Europe through early Christian veneration of Saint Susanna and the biblical figure Susanna from the Book of Daniel. Suz itself is rarely recorded as a formal given name but appears as an affectionate nickname. Related forms include Sue, Suzie, Suzy, Susie, Susan, Susanna, and Suzanne.
