I have discovered the following variants in the records so far studied (UK Births, Marriages and Deaths, Wills, Censuses).
Steaman Stearmont Steerman Steerment Stereman Stearment Sturman
There are also occurrences of Sterman, Stirman, and Stairman. I have recently started checking the name Sturman, mainly in Norfolk and Suffolk. According to the Oxford Dictionary of Family Names Sturman is a separate name in its own right but also sometimes confused with Stearman.
