A quick note about the pronunciation of Esteban's name.
Esteban has 3 syllables (es-TAY-bon) and the accent is on the second syllable.
Think of how you say the name Steven - the English equivalent of Esteban. Usually you pronounce the name Steven with the accent on the first syllable (STEE-ven).
Now translate that emphasis to Esteban, and you'll be reasonably close.
I've been thinking about how to explain that to non-Spanish speakers for weeks. You'll have to let me know if it works.
