What do you think?

We love it and I think its our first choice (although we also like Grace), but I'm interested to hear your thoughts!

Honesty is fine!

Very nice, one of my good friends is called Susannah. Also, for NN, you could shorten it in a Scandinavian mannger and called her Susu or Susa if you weren't keen on the plainer Sue or Susie.

Love it.

like it

Really like Susannah... Grace also lovely but much more commonplace.

I think Susannah is classic and strong, and lots of NN options.

i love Susannah and is on my list for a girl. I think Susie for a little girl is lovely and Susannah sounds very elegant and dare i say very intelligent.....

It's quite pretty, but it does make me think of this: www.songsforteaching.com/folk/ohsusannah.htm. The only thing is that you run the risk of it being shortened to Sue, which isn't as pretty in my opinion.
