"Sookie" may be derived from one of several etymologies:
1. Diminutive of Susan, like Sue or Susie. The origin of Susan is the English form of Susannah, which in turn comes from Hebrew Soshana, a derivative of Shoshannah (often lily, sometimes rose).
2. It may be related to the Spanish word "azucar," meaning "sugar."
3. It may be related to the West African female day name "Akosua" meaning "female born on Sunday."
4. Used in Japanese, it means "to like," or "liked" depending on how it's used. This may seem a little tame, but consider that Japanese has no word that translates straight across to "love." The word that comes closest is ai, which means "affection," so take the "to like" of the Japanese "-suki" and try to look at it through that lens. If "affection" for the Japanese means love, then "to like" or "likable" probably is on the same level as "dear" or "beloved."
If the reason for this question is because of the Sookie Stackhouse novels, or the HBO series True Blood which is based upon them, then I think #1 is probably the likeliest reason, although all of them could possibly apply. I rather doubt that a girl born and raised in the U.S. deep south will be walking around with a Spanish, African or Japanese name.
