Jessica is right.
ION, on Halloween when I had some kind of fluish-type cancer and was walking through the Halloween parade crowds to get home I walked past someone who looked like John Krasinski from The Office, but was way too tall; was in New York; and was in the same area as like 2 million people in the neighborhood for the parade. I figured, that guy managed to make a John Krasinski costume so good it fooled my flu-addled eyes. But my officemate today was telling me that he saw Krasinski in SoHo the other day, and he's like freakishly tall. So I had a John Krasinski from The Office sighting the other day!
Speaking of shoes, I bought these yesterday off the internet.
Friends and family are now only getting a pack of gum for xmas - 1 pack to share.

I've never met a Stephen who pronounced it differently from Steven. I'd say the pronunciation is ultimately in the name-holder's hands, but to my knowledge the alternate pronunciation is not as prevalent as a Megan variant, and not even on par with Deborahs.
Timelies all!
All this holiday gift talk reminds me that I need to call my brother and sister-in-law to see if there's anything in particular I can get for the nephlets.(One is 4 1/2 and the other is 1 1/2)
Shut it, traitor.
lalala, I can't hear you.
Wenchhead.
Beth, do you get Omaha steaks, or something else?
lalala, I can't hear you.
Of course you can't hear LA - you are too far north. But see? You're crying for it.
ION, one of my bosses claims that 'Stephen' is pronounced the same as 'Steven.' MY other boss and I say 'Stephen' is pronounced 'Stefen.'
Poll of all Stephens within a 4-foot radius produces 100% "Pronounced like Steven" responses.
I've only ever known one who did otherwise, and he was always having to correct people who thought that the "f" pronunciation should be spelled Stephan.
I think steaks are a lovely gift; there's also the Bacon Of The Month Club, if you're looking for both non-veg and of-the-month.

As evidenced by the fact that the two Megans on this board use different pronunciations.
Yeah! Bad SoCal people. No biscuit.
yeah!
Mmm, pears. We used to get Harry & David boxes from my uncle. Then his church moved next to Beebee Farms (Huh. No Web presence... I think Ken, the patriarch, died recently and I wanted to check. How will I know without the internets???) and now we get their boxes. Oregon has the awesomest pears.
