      She changed her name from Susan to Sussan for numerology reasons.

        Thank you for the information

        I think that’s a stupid reason to change your name

        BUT now I know that I think the leader of the coalition has a stupid name

      Ms Ley deliberately added a third “s” to her name when she was approaching her 20s, she revealed in a 2015 interview.

      The unusual spelling didn’t draw any influence from the politician’s family or cultural background, but rather, from numerology.

      “I read about this numerology theory that if you add the numbers that match the letters in your name you can change your personality,” she told The Australian.

      “I worked out that if you added an ‘s’ I would have an incredibly exciting, interesting life and nothing would every be boring. It’s that simple.

      “And once I’d added the ‘s’ it was really hard to take it away.”
