I prefer the spelling of Steven to Stephen, as I like the "Stee-vehn" pronunciation. Despite that, I do enjoy the name Stephen as well! Also, Grant is a handsome name in my opinion.

I associate Stephen and Grant with the Bloomsbury group. Duncan Grant & Stephen is Virginia Woolf’s & Vanessa Bell’s maiden name. I like both names because of this.

Love both, have a son Grant, great name

I like Stephen if it’s pronounced as it looks. Otherwise, I only like Steven. Grant just isn’t satisfactory to me.

I've never enjoyed Grant as a fn. Surname, fine; lnfn, unattractive. Stephen has always been a favourite, but only with a -ph-; Steven looks pathetically dumbed down.
