Lily; rose; horse
Sussy is primarily a diminutive form of Susan or Susanna, which derives from the Hebrew name Shoshannah. It historically refers to a lily or a rose, though in some contexts it is linked to the Egyptian word for a large flower. In modern slang, the name has gained a different connotation, which has impacted its usage as a formal given name.
