Shosha
sh(o)-sha
Origin:Yiddish
Other Origin(s):Hebrew
Meaning:Lily; Rose
Shosha is a feminine name that’s a Yiddish form of the Hebrew Shoshana and its alternate spellings, Shoshannah, and Susanna. While it mainly translates to “lily,” Shosha can also mean “rose,” giving the moniker double the blossoming charm. Both lilies and roses come in various shapes and colors and are rich with their own symbolism. Roses are believed to represent love, royalty, and power, while lilies are said to symbolize innocence and rebirth. Baby Shosha may be a little bud now, but they’ll have plenty of time to flourish and blossom into their best self.
