this is literally not how the word originated. Stan is an eminem song about an obsessed fan. there's no portmanteau at all.

Port what ever or not, actual from the song...
The point I was making, was that Zed was able to get me to finally understand and contextualize the colloquial use of it, esp since much of the depressing derogatory implications seem to have left the word.

I got that, I was just explaining where the portmanteau came from
I also heard the “stalker fan” explanation and it also helped me make more sense of the usage from the song
