I really like Susannah. It is my mama's name and I am biased. I would humor the idea of using the Suzanna variant on a daughter to honor her but using Zanna as a fun/more modern nickname than simple Susie. *Zanna would make less sense with the Susannah spelling*

Jemima was actually a childhood friend's nickname I had given her in our group of friends that all gave each other biblical character nicknames (her real name was just Carrie). She (biblical Jemima) was one of the daughters of Job and was said to be one of the most beautiful women in all the land. She gave me Delilah... in retrospect in the grand scheme of things considering she ended up not being a good friend or person I should have seen that coming by her choice in name for me. Overtime I came to learn she would make fun of me behind my back and start rumors of me at school. In the present day Jemima leaves the sour taste in my mouth because of that connection. Some names are ruined by people & this is one for me.
