Stevan

Stevan is the Serbian form of Stephen, ultimately derived from the ancient Greek name Stephanos, meaning crown or wreath. The Greek root connects to the verb stephanoun, to encircle or crown, reflecting the ceremonial garlands of the classical world. The name was widely spread throughout Christendom in honor of Saint Stephen, the first Christian martyr. Closely related forms include Stefan, Stjepan, Stevan, and the English Stephen.
