SOO

English diminutive of Susan, Turkish, Chinese

"lily; water; plain, simple, respectable"

Su Origin and Meaning

The name Su is a girl's name meaning "lily; water; plain, simple, respectable".

It may only be two letters long, but Su has substance and meaning. It can be a fresh spelling for the classic Sue, a Turkish name meaning "water", and a unisex Chinese name meaning "simple" or "respectable".

But that isn't all. Su can also be a Sanskrit prefix meaning "good" and a Burmese name meaning "prize". It is sometimes used as an element of another name, for example, the Turkish Elifsu or the Chinese Sulei or Sulin.
