Today at work a lady came in with the name Zsuzyn pronounced like Susan. Has anyone ever seen this spelling before? It was a first for me but I think I love it!
What are your thoughts?

I think I’m going to be the first of many to say, no, probably not for me. Susyn maybe or even Suzyn, but Zsuzyn is too much. There’s creative and then there’s so out there it’s actually impractical.
However, if you love it then I respect that! If it’s beautiful to you there must be beauty in it 
“Creative” names get a lot of flack on Nameberry so props to anyone who enjoys them.

i honestly kind of love it
i think it’s because i love so many names with an sz (usually polish) that the zs doesn’t look that off to me

It’s a nay from me i think the zs is a bit too much and it’s more weird than unique i think it would of been fine if it were just the suzyn and totally agree with @Archer27

my name is one letter off from the most common spelling and i have just gotten off a call with our national tax agency because they’ve misspelled it on all of their forms. i imagine a Zsuzyn would have the same problem of a much greater magnitude.

It kind of looks like an interesting international variant, but I don’t like if it’s not. Maybe Zuzanna?
It’s awful. Whoever names their kid Zsuzyn is very obviously trying way too hard to be “unique” which is just pathetic and embarrassing. People will always spell it wrong or say it wrong.
I didn’t even recognize it as a variant of Susan, and definitely would have mispronounced it. It just seems too complicated.
I didn’t realise it was just a variant of [name_f]Susan[/name_f]. I assumed it was some kind of Eastern-European name. I would pronounce Zsuzyn like zzzssue-zin, not like [name_f]Susan[/name_f].
Not sure of the origin, so if it’s [name_f]Susan[/name_f] in another language that would change my opinion, but it seems like a nay. I doubt anyone would ever spell it right no matter how many times they tried.
I’ve never seen this spelling/form before. How interesting. [name_f]My[/name_f] first instinct was to pronounce the Zs as “zh” (like [name_f]Zsa[/name_f] [name_f]Zsa[/name_f] Gabor’s name).

i kind of love it! it reminds me of ziazan, which leads zsuzyn into a really interesting, light rainbowy image! i think zs/sz names look really attractive. i would be so intrigued by a zsuzyn! super cool! :,)
