I don't care for the name spelled Steven. It's too modern looking for me. But if it's spelled Stephen then that makes me think of King Stephen and his civil war with Queen Matilda / Maud in Norman England. And other historic Stephens across Europe. I know that seems silly, but associations are key for me in whether or not I like a name. Steven does nothing for me. About the best I'll say for it is that the nn Steve makes more sense than Stephe. [Just kidding. I would never, ever, advocate for "Stephe."]
