Stephanie is a feminine personal name traditionally related to the masculine name Stephen. Both lead back to Greek stephanos, meaning a crown or wreath, such as one awarded to a victor. Picture a woman receiving a winner’s wreath to connect Stephanie with its historical root. In sentences, capitalize it: “Stephanie received a scholarship.” Steph is a common shortened form, but it should not automatically replace the full name. The spelling ph represents an /f/ sound, which also helps connect Stephanie with Stephen despite their different endings and modern pronunciations.

Stephanie is the feminine form of a name derived from Greek Stephanos, meaning “crown” or “wreath.” The Greek noun referred especially to a garland or crown associated with honor and victory.
