Hi,
I was wondering how many of us girls pick 'fem names' that are similiar to your male name?
In my experience so far I've met a lot that do- eg. Jack aka 'Jaqueline'.
I just picked a name that I think suited the look I was trying to achieve and that I liked the sound of.
My first name being Phil and my fem name once being Valerie and now Melanie,lol
I know it's a bit confusing eh,lol.
Hugs to all of you,
Melanie
my real name is robert but i like trisha better
For me they are not even close, except both are odd. I go by Kat, which is a long standing nickname in male mode, so I just fashioned a middle name out of it.
Colleen was a girl in 6th grade I had a crush on. It's nothing like my male name but it seems to fit.

There is a D/s spin to my crossdress, Eleyna was a wonderful girl that I was very close to for a long time, but later when my masculinity came under threat by these silly interests in women's clothing, I tried one last gasp at convincing myself I just wanted GG sub-women in those things, and I tried to apply those notions to Eleyna. Later on I told a Lady about this, and She felt that Eleyna would be a perfect name for my girly self, for the admiration I felt for Eleyna and her wonderfully subtle femininity and the darker connotations of what I had tried to imagine applying to her might come about.
Karen and Susan were friends when I was younger. My fem name isn't
anything like my boy name.
Karen Sue
I don't think Vash is even a "real" name. It was the name of a character I saw on a TV <no pun intended> show. I really liked the name so I use it.If I had to pick a "real" name I think it would be Christine. There really is no Fem name even close to mine
as with others,,, my f~m names 'r not even close,,, but Salamander 's a nickname given mee when verrrrrry young, 'n Mandy 's jus' a reeeeeally,reeeeeally cute name that works well with 't!!!,,,,,
My name is James but my three older sisters called me Jamie, Jane or Jean after catching mr wearing their their bras, underwear, and dresses so many times ... After Mom took me to a Gender Councelor she finally allowed to wear feminine clothes at home when I was 14 ... I sort of liked the name Jean back then, but when I moved intoan apartment of my own at about 19, I thought that "Jeanine" sounded much moer sexy, and I've stuck with Jeanine ever since.
Hugs to all.

I am Sarah...My mmmmale nnnnname iiiiiss sssssss...ummm....sssssss...I can't say, it's to damn hard here at CD.com. It will suffice to say that they both start with S, but that is their only similarity
Hmm 'Lady Sarah' has a nice ring to it..

Every time I walk down the street, I see every eye on me.
Every time they look at me, I wonder, who do they see?

Tina or Tim, there you go the two of me
My middle name is Theodore, and my wife gave me my fem name, Teddie.
Hugs,

I started out as Heather years ago. Then I was Victoria. Now I'm Ericka (and Eric and Kay and Susan). Unless you are new or from Mars, you know my guy name is Richard.
I just shortened Lawrence to Lawren.
My parents were going to call me Lisa if I'd been a girl.

and we all know where Golightly came from hehe!!Originally Posted by Lisa Golightly
My real name is Mitchell. I had a grandfather that would call me Michelle as a nick name. Also, lots of the kids called me Michelle to give me a hard time. So the name has some history with me. I didn't like it then, but it just seems to fit now. Not very creative, I know, but now its part of who I am.

I think it was this bit which hit a nerve for me all those years ago...
"Poor cat! Poor slob! Poor slob without a name! The way I see it I haven't got the right to give him one. We don't belong to each other. We just took up one day by the river. I don't want to own anything until I find a place where me and things go together. I'm not sure where that is but I know what it is like. It's like Tiffany's."

No, not even close.

Mine isn't even close. If I did have a male name that could convert into a femme name I don't think I would. Besides I'm happy with Kate.
Yes, my male name and female are very close. Just drop one letter (but I'm not telling you which one - duh!). Went by just Dana for years. People I chat and converse with usually just guess my real male name is Carlton. WRONG! Added my last name about 6-7 years ago, just to give myself more of a complete identity.That name comes from a close friend of mine (also a cd)who lost his life to cancer, and for me is kind of a tribute to him.
The key to being successful is fooling all of the people all of the time.
Life has it's up and downs. I've past the up part, so it's all downhill from here!
My male name is not Eric, and if I had been paying more attention I probably would have selected a fem name that did not have a male analogue. But I always liked the name Erica and it seemed to fit my personality well.
For photos on flickr, my user name is cd_erica_f
My first name is Richard and my middle name is Lynn. I was often told that if I were a girl, I would have been named Lynn. So, it seemed natural to name myself Lynn Richards
My names are not similar at all. Fem name is one I would have called a daughter, if I had one.
I had thought about using my middle name which can be used by either sex - Ashley.
