Lily or rose
Derived from the Hebrew name Shoshannah, it historically refers to a lily, though in modern Hebrew it can also mean a rose. The name appears in the Old Testament and the Apocrypha, representing a woman of virtue. This specific spelling is the common Spanish and Portuguese form of the more familiar Susan.
