[Opinions] Susannah
Replies
Has grown much on me lately. Susannah is a truly glorious name, together with Shoshana. :) My fave nickname is Sue, maybe Sanna(h).
Knowing many Susannas (Susannes), I can say that a huge problem is nicknaming. When she is close to you, you can easily call her Susse, Suski or Susu and everything's fine. But when you don't know her well enough, but the situation needs to be relaxed and informal, you feel like a dork by calling her Susanna and you feel even more dorky if you start calling her anything nicknamy - Susanna's nicknames are too informal!
Susannah sounds great with Frederick. :)

I'd call Susannah Sukie or Susie or straight out Susannah, although Annie is cute for someone else.
I definitely prefer this spelling, it somehow seems quite a lot grander than Susanna.
I tend to shy away from trying to describe the bearers of names, but I do know a really lovely girl called Susannah-- I think a Susannah can only ever be a really lovely person.
I think it works splendidly in a sibset with Frederick. :D

Susannah and Frederick sound like a lovely sib-set.
I think I slightly prefer the spelling Susanna.
I don't really like Annie as a NN for this, though I do adore Anna on its own.
Maybe Sannah or Zanna could work as a nickname, if you don't like Suzy/Susie? Or even Lily, as in the meaning of the name.

I think Susannah is beautiful! Annie is a cute nn, although I think I'd prefer Susie, Suzie, etc. I'm not sure if I like Susannah or Susanna better-- I think the h at the end kind of balances out the look of it though.
It makes me think of a sweet, friendly, blonde girl. And I think it could go fine with Frederick as a brother.
