I love Stephanie. I guess it's kind of an 80s name, but I've actually never met anyone with the name so I don't have any particular age association with it.
I love all the nicknames you've listed equally, I'd use them all if I named a daughter Stephanie.

What do you think of Stephanie?

---

I kind of like it but it's not one of my favourites. It's growing on me though.

---

Nice or dated?

---

It could be considered dated but I don't think it's terribly so. I think it could work on a baby or a little girl.

---

How many do you know?

---

Not many. I have met a couple of Stephanies over the years so it feels kind of common but I only know two at the moment.

---

Do you see it as an 80s name?

---

I think most Stephanies are born in the 80s but I think the name could be revived. I have a feeling I'm in the minority with that opinion.

---

Do the ones you know go by a nn?

---

The two I know are both called Steph a lot.

---

Do you like Steph, Stephi or Stevie?

---

Steph is okay. Kind of cool.
Stephi doesn't work. It's kind of cutsy, like a toddler nn.
Stevie - NMS. Don't like.

I like Stephanie. I don't think it's dated. I like Stephanie better, Stefanie just looks weird. I know 3. I don't see it as an 80s name. The ones I know don't go by nicknames, and I like Steph okay.

The only reason I like Stephanie is because of associations, but I think it's okay. I know about 3, maybe more that I've met, like, once... None of the ones I know go by Stephi or Stevie, but people call them Steph sometimes.

I really love the name Stephanie. I know two-one is 36 and one is five. I don't think it's dated. It's more of an 80's/90's name but not out of date to me at all. I prefer Stephie/Steffie as a nickname but Stevie is kind of cute too. Great name!

I think it's a nice name but it's also dated

I never liked Stephanie. For some reason, I've always put it on par with Brittany, Tiffany, and Danielle: cute names with no substance. No offense to anyone who likes these names, BTW.

I kind of like but do think that its sounds too '80's.

I think of Princess Stephanie. I llke this name.
