I am curious about some of the "nick-names" and short forms of female names that people are using? For example, "Catherine" might be called "Cat"; "Deirdre" might be called "Didi"; "Cassandra" might be called "Cass" or "Sandy", and so on.
(Please do not get into how you choose your female name; there are other threads for that. This is about name variations or what you actually get called instead of your formal female name.)
Toni wife calls me Paula
Lately its been "you bitch"but usually its just Jorja.
I prefer Catherine, but I get called Cathy, Cate, or Cat. If they have to shorten it I guess I would go with Cat.
I know enough to know I don't know enough.
Peace
Kate is my nickname. Katherine Megan Simmons is my full femme name at this time.

My name's already short... but some people have found a way to shorten it further, from Jana to Jan. I prefer Jana, though.
I didn't have a 'girl' name until I came here and it seemed it was expected; I just took the male name I wanted, and used the female version. Then applied a suitable nickname for the 14 year old girl that I, unfortunately, feel like I was supposed to be.

Some causes of crossdressing you've probably never even considered: My TG biography at:http://www.crossdressers.com/forums/...=1#post1490560
There's an addendum at post # 82 on that thread, too. It's about a ten minute read.
Why don't we understand our desire to dress, behave and feel like a girl? Because from childhood, boys are told that the worst possible thing we can be, is a sissy. This feeling is so ingrained into our psyche, that we will suppress any thoughts that connect us to being or wanting to be feminine, even to the point of creating separate personalities to assign those female feelings into.
I did it the other way. I chose Kaz as a nick-name first - it seemed to fit and began with a K which was convenient. I then decided my more formal name should be Karen. No idea why... never known many Karens... So I am Karen... aka Kaz. It has felt right for quite a few years now.

I have many friends that know me as Stephanie and Scott and some found easier to always just say Steph, and some will address me as Stephanie or Steph and remember Scott if I am in male mode
As you can see I use Jeannie. My email address is Jeannie Smith and it was chosen because it no relationship to my real name what so ever. Not much you can do with Jeannie but Jean or Nie unless someone has any suggestions.

Beverley does get called Bev. A natural shortening of the name.
My wife calls me that a lot irrespective of how I am dressed.
Work on your elegance,

I'm Kath for short here, but usually go by Katharine.
I use the short form (Chantal) of what I initially chose (Chantal Leah). Some people that I socialize with locally have used Channy, Chan, Chantilly Lace and Princess
