:lol: Well, to almost get back on topic ( :eek: ), the reason the leaderhead is called Stefan is that I got it from the Swedish "Nationalencyklopedin", which has all names of kings in Swedish. This can be quite irritating, you're reading of the English king Jakob, and realising that they mean James. :D
And I don't know the Hungarian version of Stefan, so it stayed Swedish.

I was browsing old topics, since I was away for a few months, so I answer your question:

Stefan or Stephne is Istvan in Hungarian. Szent Istvan = Saint Stephen
Little more infos about the 'saint' part:

Saint-King Stephen "the Great" (Szent István király, in Hungarian) (about 975 - August 15, 1038)
Stephen was canonized by the Vatican as Saint Stephen of Hungary in 1083.
 
Also, Steven's (István's ) pagan name was Vajk, because he was a saint that was born pagan :)

The modern times background (Chainbridge) would be more appropriate for the Industrial times (the Chainbridge was the second of such bridge in the world and was built in the 1840s in Pest-Buda and still standing there though the name of the city is Budapest now...)
