[Opinions] Re: Susan, Susannah, or Suzanne? (m)
Suzanne is my favorite. It is familiar, easy to recognize but has a spicier flair than other forms of the name. Famous bearers of the name include the actress Suzanne Pleshette, who was in Alfred Hitchcock's "The Birds" (1963), Blackbeard's Ghost (1968), and lots of other films, author Suzanne Collins, ballerina Suzanne Farrell, and World War II French Resistance operative Suzanne Spaak. Susannah is my second favorite form. It is romantic with an old fashion charm.Susan is plain and rather dated. In another 20 years, it will probably be retro, but right now it is like Linda and Debbie.

Suzanne Pleshette did, of course, appear in "The Birds" and other films, but some old farts like me remember her best from "The Bob Newhart Show".
