What does the name Stephanie mean?
Stephanie is the feminine form of Stephen, which comes from the Greek name Stephanos, meaning “crown, wreath”. Saint Stephen, a deacon in the early church, is regarded as the first Christian martyr, and his name became common across the Christian world. So Stephanie carries a crown in its meaning, which makes it a fine name for a winner.
Stephanie nicknames and other forms
Steph is the nickname almost every Stephanie gets, and Stevie is a sporty alternative. In German she might be Steffi, like the tennis champion Steffi Graf, and in French, Fanny. Plenty of Stephanies also enjoy simply having the full, elegant version.
Some famous Stephanies
German tennis star Steffi Graf, born Stefanie, won all four Grand Slam titles and Olympic gold in 1988, the “Golden Slam”. Stephanie Kwolek, a chemist at DuPont, invented Kevlar, the fiber used in bulletproof vests. And Australian swimmer Stephanie Rice won three gold medals at the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
Stephanie through the decades
Stephanie rose fast in the second half of the 20th century. US Social Security data has it 45th in the 1960s, 9th in the 1970s and 6th in the 1980s, when more than 218,000 American Stephanies were born. It was still 14th in the 1990s and 51st in the 2000s, so a Stephanie is most likely in her 30s or 40s.
Did you know?
Stephanie Kwolek’s fiber, Kevlar, is five times stronger than steel by weight, and it is used in everything from bulletproof vests to tires and sails. In Greece the crowns of laurel or olive given to winners at the ancient games were called stephanoi, from the same word as Stephanie. Saint Stephen’s feast day is 26 December, the day after Christmas.

Who is it for and how she can use it
Whether Stephanie is eight or eighty, a 6" x 9" notebook is a comfortable size: big enough to write in properly, slim enough to carry. The 160 lined pages don’t come with a set layout, so she decides what it’s for. Journal, planner, class notes, recipes, travel log or doodle book all work. And with her name on the cover, nobody will mistake it for theirs.
Why personalized works
Personalized gifts show you thought about the person, not just the occasion. A notebook with Stephanie on the cover is affordable, useful every day and still feels special. It’s also a safe choice when you’re not sure of someone’s style, because everyone needs somewhere to write things down.
