This name derives from the Ancient Greek name “Stéfanos / Stéphanos (Στέφανος)”, meaning "crown, garland, wreath, honor, reward, any prize or honour", which in turn derives from “stéphō  (στέφω)”, meaning “to put round, to surround”. In ancient Greece, a wreath was given to the winner of a contest (from which the crown, symbol of rulers derived). The use of the noun was first recorded in Homer's Iliad.
