Do you suppose

What do you suppose is wrong with Lynn?
She's so quiet.

Are the statements above the same as "what, do you suppose, is wrong with Lynn?
She's so quiet"?

Is the insertion of 'do you suppose' common usage?

Is it OK to say, "who do you suppose is that girl"?

Thanks

No, not "what, do you suppose, is wrong with Lynn?" because the "do you suppose" is an essential element. The question is asking you what you believe is wrong with Lynn.
