Girl name · 10 babies recorded · 1974–2025
Steffani: 10 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 7 births in 1990.
Steffani is a graceful feminine form of Stephen or Stefan, tracing back through Italian and English to the Greek *Stephanos*, meaning “crown” or “garland.” It shares its root with the laurel wreath worn by victors in ancient Greece, lending it a quietly triumphant air. Famous bearers include American actress Steffani Brass, known for her roles in television, and the spelling also echoes the name of singer Gwen Stefani, though her version drops the extra ‘f’. While no major places bear the name directly, the linked surname Stephens appears in countless Scottish and English locations. Steffani feels like a slightly rarer, more romantic variant of the ever-popular Stephanie – a choice that feels both familiar and distinctive for modern parents.
