Stephens is an English patronymic name; the "s" suffix indicates son of Stephen. First found in Gloucestershire, England, Stephens genealogy traces to FitzStephen, a knight who accompanied William the Conqueror.

Stephens and Stevens are used interchangeably and are equivalent to Stephenson and Stevenson; other spelling variations in Scotland, Holland, Germany, and Poland include FitzStephen, Stefan, Steffen and Stiven. American Stephens family history began in Jamestown, Virginia, in 1624.
