Istevan Origin and Meaning
The name Istevan is a boy's name of Spanish origin.
Istevan is a masculine name that appears to be a variant spelling of 'István,' the Hungarian form of Stephen. The name originates from the Greek 'Stephanos,' meaning 'crown' or 'garland,' symbolizing honor and achievement. This particular spelling adaptation may represent a personalized variation or a cross-cultural adaptation. While István is common in Hungary and among Hungarian diaspora communities, the Istevan variant is considerably rarer. The name carries historical significance as István was the name of Hungary's first king and patron saint, giving it associations with leadership and nobility across Eastern European cultures.
