What is "stephano"

Stephano may refer to:

• Stephano (The Tempest), a drunkard in Shakespeare's The Tempest
• An alias of Count Olaf in Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events

• Stephano (moon), a natural satellite of the planet Uranus

Stephano ( or ) is a retrograde irregular satellite of Uranus. It was discovered by Brett J. Gladman, et al. in 1999, and given the provisional designation S/1999 U 2.

Confirmed as Uranus XX, it was named after the drunken butler in William Shakespeare's play The Tempest in August 2000.

The orbital parameters suggest that it may belong to the same dynamic cluster as Caliban, suggesting common origin.

Stephano is a boisterous and often drunk butler of King Alonso in William Shakespeare's play, The Tempest. He, Trinculo and Caliban plot against Prospero, the ruler of the island on which the play is set and the former Duke of Milan in Shakespeare's fictional universe. In the play, he wants to take over the island and marry Prospero's daughter, Miranda. Caliban believes Stephano to be a god because he gave him wine to drink which Caliban believes healed him.
