[Opinions] Re: Susan and Suze
in reply to a message by )(
I prefer Suzanne to worn-out Susan. I knew a Suzanne who longed to be known as Zanne but everyone called her Suze, which she resented.In the Narnia books, Susan is the name of the pretty sister: in the end she becomes so obsessed with her own looks that she turns her back on Narnia. Of course, people must have found the name lovely or it wouldn't have been such a chart-topper, but it does seem strange now.
