Everybody is still calling Hauschka “Steven”

Earlier this year Seattle Seahawks kicker Stephen Hauschka revealed the spelling of his first name has been copied inaccurately as “Steven” for about 10 years—ever since an error made in college at Middlebury before he transferred to NC State. It’s a simple mistake, and I’m sure already as a child Hauschka got used to people either spelling it wrong or folks pronouncing it the way Stephen Curry does (Curry’s first name is actually Wardell, after his father Dell).

Hauschka has said he doesn’t mind too much, and added you can even call him Steve if you like.
