The name often associated with the meme of a deformed dog saying "Phteven". The Ph at the beginning signifies and "f". Also, the old spelling derived from greek. Greek uses the Ph to make a v or an f such as; phalanx and Stephen. Most people will say it is the stupid/wrong spelling of Steven. Stephen can also be pronounced as "Stefen".

This is a word that relates to the Game of Thrones series, in which "the iron price" was described as paying for something with blood, either one's own, or anothers. Iron is a major component in the make-up of a person's blood, and the iron price clearly relates to this; versus paying for something with gold, silver, or something else. See also, the Iron Bank of Braavos, which has a similar concept relating to it.
Instead of paying with gold and silver, the conqueror bled on the battlefield; paying the iron price.
