Origin
The Persian name for Lily is Sausan. There is also a similar Hebrew word for lily, SUSANNAH, who was a woman falsely accused of adultery in the Old Testament. Connected with this is Susa, an ancient city of Persia. "Susan" is also named as the son (or daughter, in some translations) of Elam. It is said to derive its name from the lilies which abounded in the plain in which it was situated, susan, or shusan being the Persian word for lily.
