The blow-back operated STEN name is an acronym from the weapons designers Major Reginald V Shepherd and Harold Turpin and EN for Enfield (- Royal Small-Arms Factory Enfield.) - Although STENs were also built in many different plants worldwide - including Europe & overseas, Canada, Australia (Austen), and by Radio Corporation New Zealand.
