Stevonnie (/stᵻˈvɒni/ stə-VON-ee) is a fictional character from the 2013 animated series Steven Universe, created by Rebecca Sugar. A "fusion" of the protagonist Steven Universe and his friend Connie Maheswaran, Stevonnie is portrayed as an androgynous teenager, attractive to both men and women. First introduced in episode "Alone Together", Stevonnie only appears occasionally in the series.

One of the core concepts in Steven Universe is a process referred to as "fusion", in which two characters dance with one another in order to merge into one being who is physically larger and stronger. Though fusion is considered a sensitive and important action for two characters, it is described as "distinctly non-sexual." The episode "Alone Together" focuses on protagonist Steven's first experience with fusion while dancing with his friend Connie. The two characters explicitly identify as male and female while separated, but the gender of Stevonnie is difficult to describe. Regardless, Stevonnie is usually considered a unique character, as is the case with other fusions in the show.

Rebecca Sugar, the creator of Steven Universe, referred to an inquiry on Stevonnie's gender—whether Stevonnie is agender, bigender, or something else—by stating that "Stevonnie is an experience! The living relationship between Steven and Connie." Sugar described Stevonnie as a complex and specific metaphor, that becomes relatable as it takes shape in the form of a unique character. Besides challenging gender norms, Stevonnie serves as a metaphor for "terrifying firsts in a first relationship," the feeling of hitting puberty, and objectification.
