Zuzanna

Meaning of Zuzanna

Zuzanna, pronounced zoo-ZAN-nah, is the warm-hearted Polish sister of the classic Susanna, both tracing back to the Hebrew Shoshannah, meaning “lily” or “rose.” With its playful double Z adding a bit of zing, Zuzanna feels like a dewy blossom at dawn—timeless yet refreshingly distinctive. Though it’s crowned with popularity in Poland, in the United States it remains an under-the-radar gem: in 2024 just a dozen little Zuzannas made the cut, placing the name near the 938th spot. For parents seeking a name that’s rich in history, bright with floral grace, and carrying an inspiring, uniquely European flair, Zuzanna strikes just the right note between elegant tradition and modern charm.
