Etienne

Etienne is the French form of Stephen, a name that means 'crown'. It's an elegant and sophisticated choice for those who have a love for French culture and heritage. While Etienne is quite popular in French-speaking regions, it remains a unique choice in English-speaking countries, offering a touch of European charm. Historically, it has been borne by saints and scholars, lending it a timeless appeal. Etienne does not typically have straightforward nicknames, but its full pronunciation is melodic enough to stand on its own.
