Russian?

Bump for attention of someone who knows Russian.

If it were Russian, it should have been
Я Сьюзен Грин.
It's the traditional way of rendering this name.

But seems rednaxela contributes in Russian.

So it might be Russian, but mistaken?

I believe it's Russian. Theoretically, it can be Bulgarian. Я is used in Russian, Belarusian, Ukrainian and Bulgarian (see en-wiki article Я), and some Altaic languages.

In Russian we tend to transcribe foreign names (Сьюзен/Сьюзан Sjuzen/Sjuzan), while a transliteration is used here (Сузан Suzan). People don't write like this for at least one hundred years.

Now we would write:
Я Сьюзен Грин.


It can be Ukrainian, but English /i:/ is usually transcribed as Ukrainian i /i/, и /ɪ/, and in Ukrainian it would also be transliterated:
Я Сьюзен Грін.

It can't be Belarusian, for it has no letter и.

* not as и /ɪ/

> Сьюзан / Сьюзен ?

Плюсую "Сьюзан". :-)
