Ewka, Eweczka, Ewalunia...

Stefan I am not sure but would guess/expect:

Stefanek, Stefanu¶.

Don't know if 'Stefek' or 'Stefu¶' exist?

Not likely.

Ewa: Ewka, Ewunia, Ewusia, Ewcia

Stefan: Stefek, Stefciu, Stefanek

You are probably right, but I have an aquaintance called Ewa and have heard how her husband calls her. It seems that a lot of these diminutives can be 'made up'.
