HelpRe: Stephanie
in reply to a message by Martha
It was somewhat popular from my mother's age group all the way down to a little younger than me. I like the name but I also know a lot of women named Stephanie, including some close friends of mine and my mother's best friend from her childhood (who is now one of my Dad's best friends) and she's essentially my Aunt. For that reason, it would seem odd to me to consider using it unless it was in honor of someone.
It's a name that I do think is pretty and it ages well. I think it was on the list for both of my brothers if they had been girls. When it's ready for a comeback, it will be a name I'd welcome back enthusiastically without being one of those old people who goes, "Stephanie?! EW. WHY?" I know why. It's gorgeous and it sounds regal to me without being fluffy or over the top.
