Stefani

Girl name · 3 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Stefani: 3 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 3 births in 1993.

Stefani is the Italian and Greek feminine form of Stephen, derived from the Greek *stephanos*, meaning "crown" or "garland." It shares its roots with the more widely used Stephanie. The name gained modern fame through the pop icon Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, known globally as Lady Gaga, whose birth name has brought the spelling into the spotlight. While no major places bear the name directly, the related Stephen appears in countless locations, such as St. Stephen's Green in Dublin. Notably, Stefani remains less common in Scotland than Stephanie, yet its association with a trailblazing artist gives it a contemporary, creative edge for parents seeking a distinctive yet familiar choice.
