   in case you're all really curious, she's named after her father,   
   Stephen.[1] now i'm wondering how her name is pronounced -- Steevenee?   
      
   in general, i find (some) americans are very creative with names,   
   tweaking and twisting them to their own nefarious needs. a bit like   
   Tolkien. in the Morgans' case, perhaps not so much.
