am loving Susannah today as girls name for DC3.......

[Leannabanana]

• opinions and second names please?

Lovely name, excellent choice

let your dd's choose the middle name

Love it.

One of my best friends is called Susannah, she is a wonderful, warm, elegant and generous - so the name has very positive connotations for me.

Ds1 would have been Susannah Faith if he'd been a girl.
Lovely name

Ooh Patience is lovely....Susannah Patience....my surname is three syllables beginning with M....would that make it too long tho i wonder? does it need to be a single syllable middle name?

Bleugh - will get shortened to Sue or Suzy!

Sukey is a dogs name.

I think it is lovely but I would try not to shorten it.

I know a delightful litle Susannah - siblings call her Zannie

love it

lovely

Love it!

thanks everyone - DH loves Susannah too so looks like this is the one....

Oh, I love this name. Think I'd use a z though as I like the letter z. And Suzy is a cool shortening. There's someone fairly prominent called Suzy Leather. What a name

I love it. Susannah is my DD's middle name.

I love it. You could shorten it to Zannah. How about Suzannah Rose or Suzannah Grace?

Milliways - My siblings and I called my wee sister Zani when she was young.

She now calls herself Suzi and loves her name.

So yes, Leannabanana, Susannah get the thumbs up from me.

Oh, and Jane is a nice middle name.

Hello WW!!

I'm quite keen o it at the moment. Good name, lots of alternatives for shortening. Not sure about Patience in the middle, but it depends on the rhythm of the full name I think. If you like the way it sounds then go for it.

I think it is a beautiful name and it was one dh and I loved for all of our children however his best friend divorced a woman called it whilst I was expecting dd2 so sadly it had to go into the can not use list but I think it is beautiful and she wont be one of 11 others in her year in school yet no one will go you called her WHAT??

Susannah is my name and I have always loved it - and it works as well in any of the shortened versions although I don't like Sue or Susan personally. The great thing about it is it is well-known enough for everybody to understand it but unusual enough that I was always the only one in my class.

Oooh Susannah, not heard it for a long while and i adore it!

Sukey or Sukie as nn?

Susannah Alice
Susannah Louise
