Origin: Greek

Meaning: Crown; Honor; Fame

While everyone fancies their baby's the cutest, not everyone can play the nobility card! The boy's name Steffan, though not inherently royal, is definitely fit for a throne. It's rooted in the Greek name Stephan or Stéphanos and means "crown," "honor," and "fame." Back in ancient Greece, winners of contests and sporting events wore a laurel wreath atop their heads for all to admire. Apollo, the god of Sun wore one as a symbol of devotion to his first love, Daphne. This name is also a hair from Stefan, as in the brother to hunk Damon in the supernatural drama, The Vampire Diaries.
