History & Origin

Suann is a compound of two staples of the era. Sue is the everyday short form of Susan, from the Hebrew Shoshannah, 'lily', and Ann derives from Hannah, the Hebrew Channah, meaning 'grace' or 'favor'. Joined and closed up, they make a single tidy name.

It was a modest mid-century pick, most common from the nineteen-fifties and drifting to rarity by the century's end. A Suann today is likely a woman of the boomer generation; the name is firmly vintage, though its parts, Sue and Ann, remain familiar.

Did you know? Suann is a compact cousin of Sue Ann and Susann, part of the mid-century vogue for run-together double names like Marylou and Bobbijo; it stayed a rare choice throughout.
