I want to know how to pronounce the name of the guy from LMFAO. His real name is Stefan. Does anybody know if that is pronounced as Steven, Stef-on, or Stef-in?

I know 2 men w. this name, and they both pronounce it ‘stehf-ON”.I would think Steven is ‘STEE-ven’, as I know quite a few people w. this name and they all pronounce it thus.…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

The Name Stefan

Prof. Cristobal Welch · Answer

Stef-on

Prof. Cristobal Welch · Answer

It’s pronounced ste-FON. The name Stefan is a Slavic form of Stephen. In some countries, it’s pronounced STEF-in, but the LMFAO member pronounces his own name as ste-FON.

Prof. Cristobal Welch · Answer

Stef-on. Hahaha.

Prof. Cristobal Welch · Answer

I would pronounce it Stef-on. On Vampire Diaries they pronounce it Stef-in, but it’s not Steven at all.

Prof. Cristobal Welch · Answer

STEF-‘n. The vowel at the end is neutral, it doesn’t sound like -on or -in or -an or anything. HOWEVER, that’s just my usual pronunciation, and the most common one where I live. There is another pronunciation, which is st’f-AHN. The vowel at the end makes a long AAAH sound, like in the word car, or armadillo. And in this pronunciation, the vowel at the START is neutral. I’ve met two Stefans, one with each pronunciation.

Prof. Cristobal Welch · Answer

Stef-in & Stef-on are both correct, depending on where you’re from.Stephen is pron: StevenStephan is also pron: stef-in

Prof. Cristobal Welch · Answer

I pronounce it Stef-in. but thats because of vampire diaries:)

Prof. Cristobal Welch · Answer

I pronounce it stef-in

Prof. Cristobal Welch · Answer

This name is NOT a Steve for sh-yer! They are Steff-ins. The name most mistake “Steff-in” for is STEPHEN. This is pronounced STEE-Ven because it is a gender proper masculine address. The first E is long to denote masculinity and the PH,s pronunciation reflects the same type of F in the word OF. Stephanie is Ste-Fuh-nee because it Feminine.
