Sorry if there were any repeats! Any you like?

I really like Susanna Ruth.

1) Susannah has always been one of my favorite names, it's feminine without being frilly and classic but still unusual. It has a variety of nickname options too, never a fan of Susie or Susan, I've always liked Annie or Anna.

---

2) My favorite combinations are:
Susannah Beatrice
Susannah Ruth
Susannah Belle
Susannah Pearl
Susannah Catherine
Susannah Lily ( I saw you all ready mentioned this...)
Susannah Poppy ( in keeping with the flower theme)
Susannah Fleur ( also flower related)

---

3) Most classic names go well with Susannah. I've always liked the combination of Susannah and Adeline. Other suggestions:
For girls:
Thea
Clara
Madeline
Audrey
Phoebe
Caroline
Eleanor

---

Boys:
Henry
Thomas
Isaac
Morgan
George
Jude
Leo

There aren't many names that would clash with Susannah. Two very feminine, longer names ending in "a" might be a bit much, or a very modern, trendy, or masculine ( for a girl) name wouldn't go as well with Susannah but most names as long as they were somewhat classic would sound fine.

Hope that was helpful!

1. I adore Susanna (my preferred spelling). BTW, it's my understanding that "Oh! Susanna" is also spelled this way after Stephen Foster's sister, Susanna. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

---

2. Mns: I've given this lots of thought since Susanna is one of my favorites. My faves are: Charlotte, Juliet and Margaret. I've also considered Elizabeth Susanna with the nn Lily since Lily is a traditional nick for Elizabeth and Susanna means 'lily.'

---

3. Just about any classic name would flow nicely with Susannah: William, Oliver, Henry, James, Charlotte, Jane, Abigail, Eve ... My dds are Katherine, Victoria and Anna and I would consider Susanna (as a mn only) for another dd.

Re: Shoshannah, I don't think you'd have to be Jewish to pull it off, however, it's a name that I just don't find attractive. I want to like it because I love the way it's written (something about the two sh's puts me off).

I love the name Susannah, though I slightly prefer the spelling Susanna, which looks less frivolous to me. But that's just my opinion.

---

Here are a few suggestions for mn:

---

Susannah Pearl
Susannah Marie
Susannah Rose
Susannah Katherine
Susannah Leonore
Susannah Adelle
Susannah Caroline
Susannah Lorelei
Susannah Violet
Susannah Lorraine

---

Grace

Nicholas
Reuben
Matthew
Joseph

I like it. I prefer Shoshana, but Susannah is cute. Classic names go well with Susannah - Lucia, Miriam, Naomi, Katherine, Jonas (all favorites of mine!). The only names that wouldn't sound good with Susannah would be modern ones, like McKayla and Susannah.

---

I'm not good at combos, unfortunately.

I quite like Susannah. I'm not sure that I'd use it personally, but I have a good association with a Susannah, and that has boosted the name's appeal to me.

---

Susannah Margaret
Susannah Candace
Susannah Rain
Susannah Jolie
Susannah Ester
Susannah Ruth
Susannah Judith

Siblings...
Simon
Judah
Matthias
