π About Steven
Steven is an English form of the Greek Stephanos, meaning 'crown' β a symbol of victory and honour. Popularised through Saint Stephen, the first Christian martyr, the name became a staple of English-speaking cultures. In the US and Australia it was a consistent top-15 name from the 1950s through the 1970s, embodying the confident, classic feel of the postwar era before gradually declining in the late 20th century.
