It's actually a pretty decent name. Sure anyone with the name Stefanie will have to deal with people misspelling it as Stephanie but look on the bright side at least there won't be any mispronunciations of the name Stefanie and no one will mistake it for a boy's name plus it looks way more prettier than Stephanie tbh.
Stefanie Evangelista is an Aruban beauty pageant titleholder who was crowned Miss Aruba 2013 and was represented her country Aruba at the Miss Universe 2013 pageant.
This spelling of the name is somewhat difficult to carry around in life as it is perpetually mispelled by everyone. Sometimes, even if you spell it out, people will still write “ph” instead of “f” and it is a little bit maddening. I guess it’s just such a common name for ladies born in the 1970’s and early 80’s that people are used to the traditional spelling. It is a great name, though, and a great spelling. Why use two letters when one will do?

Stefanie Maria "Steffi" Graf is a German former tennis player, who was ranked world No. 1 during her career. Graf won 22 Grand Slam singles titles. Her 22 singles titles puts her second on the list of Major wins by a tennis player since the introduction of the Open Era in 1968 and is third all-time behind Margaret Court and Serena Williams. In 1988, she became the first and only tennis player to achieve the Golden Slam by winning all four Grand Slam singles titles and the Olympic gold medal in the same calendar year. Furthermore, she is the only tennis player to have won each Grand Slam event at least four times.
This is my name, and I like it very much. However there are some downsides to the spelling. Since "Stephanie" with a "PH" is more common, it is almost always spelled wrong. At least it's not so crazy I have to spell the whole thing. "Stefanie with an F." usually does the trick. In the end I prefer the spelling. I think it looks prettier, and makes more sense.
I chose this name for my younger sister, when she was born. I thought it was a beautiful name, then... now, I'm not as fond, but I still think it's a lovely name! :)
