My name is Steven, and I always assumed it was popular for a long time and would remain so for a long time. Apparently though, it has now plummeted in popularity among baby names.
My father is named Steven, as am I, and my brother's middle name is Steven. It's a good name, rarely misspelled and never mispronounced.
My baby'son was born in 2018 and I named him Steven.
I have the Hybridic edition. I was taught mine is a similar related variant but is not the'same name because mine is pronouncable as spelled in the experience I have had in common society because some use it that way. In text Key mine reads as Stephen pronounced: STEEV-ən/STeF-ən. It's spellable as STEVEN,Stephan, Stefan, or Steffen.

I was named after my father, so I have never been called Steve or Steven by anyone who knows me; I always went by my middle name. It's a great way to filter out telemarketers. If they ask for Steven'they clearly don't know me.
Steven is my name. I too really don't like to be called Steve, but I never had any nicknames like Stevie. It was always Steven. My grandmother insisted that my name was spelled with the "ph" and because she was so set in her ways, we "allowed" her to sign my name on cards and such spelled like that.
My name is Steven. As a kid it was usually Stevie, Steve, And Steve-O. My family always called me Steven, though I always introduced myself as Steve.
