Zsuzsi Origin and Meaning

The name Zsuzsi is a girl's name of Hungarian origin.

Zsuzsi is a Hungarian diminutive form of Zsuzsanna, which is the Hungarian version of Susanna or Susan. The name ultimately derives from the Hebrew Shoshana, meaning "lily" or "rose." Zsuzsi functions as an affectionate nickname in Hungarian culture, much like Suzie or Susie in English, though it can also stand as a given name in its own right. The distinctive 'Zs' beginning, pronounced similar to the 's' in "pleasure," gives the name an exotic quality outside of Hungary. While common in its native country, Zsuzsi remains rare internationally. The name carries connotations of sweetness and familiarity in Hungarian culture, with a youthful, endearing quality.
