a female version of your male name
your male name spelled differently
an androgynous name - both male and female
from somewhere else
Hi all,
Just intrigued by our names and thought I'd post a poll about the nature of your name.
The question is "Is your femme name:
1. The female version of your male name
2. Your male name spelled differently
3. An androgynous name, could be either male or female but isn't related to yours
4. A name from some other source
Also, I'd be very interested to know the most common names on the site, without having to trawl through 3500 names. Any idea mods?

Lot of name things going on here, Tim to Tina.
This is so funny. Most of my online names are pulled out of the air due to that fact that you can try to become a member with the name you want but every name you try is already taken. I hate having to name myself something like Jenny2467. LOL
So I just keep trying till I get a name I can live with without having to add numbers to the end of it. That is how Jennaie became Jennaie!

I'm in the "pulled out of thin air" category. I just picked names I thought sounded nice. Not sure how I could get "Doug" into a femme form

If you ever want to swap, (grin). Julie is the name I go by En-femme.
You know Julie, Jennaie is really a very pretty name and I have already recieved several private messages from members who absolutely adore my name.
Isn't working is it? Didn't think so.

Missing my Libra babe Sherlyn, I hope she's rocking up there with the angels
Missing our Rianna, doesn't seem right, gone to early, hope she's partying with Sherlyn
I actually liked the name Josephine .. but shortened it to Josi because I thought it sounded "friendlier" ..mm
My Wife picked my name from about 20 I pre selected
Frances is the female spelling of my given name...Lorraine is derived vaguely from my actual middle name...Onyx says my female side is very strong.
[SIZE="3"][/SIZE]Two girls ...and a guy
Out of the air. Wanted to match my everyday initials; always liked Teresa, Amina a lucky encounter with a list of names Googled from the ether
When I started CDing I went by "Tina", but that name was a little too fem for me and also seemed quite common among CDs (no offense meant to the Tinas here!). I went to school with an Erica and always liked the name. When I switched to it, I didn't think about the fact that most people would just assume my given name was Eric.
well for me, I wanted a feminine name that sounded pretty, and sounds good together for me, so I chose a totally different name from my real name. and I have always thought that Gail was a pretty name, so that's when gail was born, I just threw together a couple middle neames that sounded pretty to me too, so this is my whole feminine name, Gail Michelle kellyanne Stauffer
I was given my name by a female friend who at the first she saw me dressed screamed , " OMG !!!!! You look just like my sister Karen !" . So that's what I was christened from then on .
This girl just wants to have fun !!!
[SIZE=3]14 variants of Deborah? Geez sounds like it's time to change my name again.[/SIZE]
I picked this one because I met someone with the name and and associated it with a pretty woman and so found it to be a pretty name.
Mine comes from my mother. I once asked her what I would have been named if I had been born a girl.
Saw mine somwhere and thought it was a great name, but definatly in the "thin air" catagory.
Daphne is who I am Donald is my birth name my wife had named me just for what I look like as a girl but I noticed my name didnt make the list
silly boys trucks are for girls
Thank you Tamara,
Interesting that there is virtually no correspondence between the most popular femme names and the most popular baby names in either the US or UK. The only name in the entire list that is in the official lists is Katie (10 in the UK).
Interesting it may be but, on reflection, not surprising.

My name came from Isabel Lang, my favourite weathergirl on the BBC. She has red hair too, only she's prettier than me.
Maybe most t-girls take their name from the real woman they admire.

My guy name differs from it's girl version by only one letter and so it didn't interest me.
The name I now use (Ellie) came from an inside joke between my SO and I.
I think my SO likes it better then the others I was thinking of because she participated in its creation.
I took my name for two reasons. First I like the name. Second was it starts with the first letter of my given middle name.
Feeling and looking great
Jasmine and Donna
Swiss Miss
mine is the name i was to have if i had been a girl also so i felt it was only fair to use it.my daughter loved it so much she named my grand daughter it also..kind of a family name i think .

Mine is the Fem version of my real first name. Philip Phyliss. Of course there are quite a few different ways to spell it. I don't know why I chose this one, but there it is.
