History & Origin

Stephaney is a respelling of Stephanie, from the Greek stephanos, crown or garland. This -ey variant appeared for American girls only faintly, around 1990, when Stephanie itself was highly popular.

It was never common in this form, given to only about twenty girls a year at most, while standard Stephanie was a favorite. A girl named Stephaney then would be in her mid thirties today. The spelling reads as a personal variant rather than a distinct name.

Did you know? The crown in Stephaney comes from the Greek stephanos, a garland or wreath, the same root that names the martyr Saint Stephen.
