Crown or wreath
Stevan is a variation of the Greek name Stephanos, which translates to 'crown' or 'that which surrounds.' It specifically refers to the laurel wreath traditionally given to victors in ancient competitions. While the 'Stephen' spelling is more common in English-speaking countries, 'Stevan' is a frequent variant in Serbian and Montenegrin cultures.
