Aspen was just wondering how all you gurlz came up with your cd names. Was it after a person that motivated you or a pet or friend or idol? I just thought it may be fun to find out. Did you know how porn stars come up with there names? Their first names are the first pet they owned with their mothers maiden name for a last name. For instance my name would be lady after my dog and last name stoklosa Lady stoklosa Wow no wonder I cd it was destiny. :eek:

Mine was my middle name given to me by parents. No wonder I am a CD but I am so glad it worked out this way!

05-22-2005, 05:06 PM
I generally use the same name or offshoot of a certain name for everything I do, e-mail, instant messengers, forums, but when deciding on a name for this community I figured the meaning would be completely lost, or just far too obscure to be understood, and I didn't want to be known as the guy with the weird Japanese name that noone can pronounce.

I borrowed the name Ibuki, which shares similar origins as my common name, but is the name of a female ninja. I chose a ninja to compliment the fact I prefer to stay hidden from those around me, at least on this matter.

The last name "Warpetal" I just made up on the spot, for personality. I like the idea of conjuring an image of a flower petal being implemented in battle.

My porn name is Cat Quinn.

Mona Smith is an anagram of my boy login name that I use on t'internet. Just a happy accident really. I was thinking of changing it, but too many people know me by it now so it might make it a bit confusing to try and change it.

Joyce starts with the same letter as my boy name and I just think it is a very pretty and femme nane. I have also gone by Lynn, another pretty name. The S stands for a number of things. Use your imagination. My porn name would be Ginger Kerry. Love, Joyce S

Julie
05-22-2005, 05:33 PM
I'm named Julie after a GG I know and simply because she is everything I wouldhave liked to have been.

My porn name would be Scraggy Duff (That wouldn't sell many films would it),:rotflmao: lucky the dog wasn't called Up The. :D


Aspen I took the liberty of moving this here from the intros as it wouldn't get the attention there.

Jayne actually depending on the script shep might work but not for a cd unless it was a man to maiden type flick then it would be called SHEP TO CHERYLE. This thread turned out ok. I would still like to here everyones porn name to might make you smile at yourself. I love Aspen because it reminds me of the rockies and in the mountains there are trees that shimmer and shine as the wind blows through them they are called aspen trees. John Denver wrote some songs about them

Lady Jayne

I just like Jayne It seems to fit and I think it's very girly as for the lady part, I was out for a walk en femme one night and an Asian lad Approched me and started talking, after a couple of minutes he asked me "Is you a lady" well it was dark!!! Second scariest moment while dressed.

Katrina is the name of a girl that was a few years ahead of me in high school. I had lunch with her one day several years after she graduated and I was a senior or about to go into college. She was my bosses daughter and was helping him out that day and he asked me if I would take her out. Of course I said yes because she was beautiful and I was used to doing various odd jobs for him. I never really knew her in school, but she was really nice, smart, and funny when we went out for lunch. I always thought she was very classy and a good role model for women. Plus, I really like the name.

My name is Kira Deride. I use that name because one of my favorite singers/actresses use that name in a movie. The last name means fake.

Dawn
05-22-2005, 06:23 PM
I named myself Dawn after the first woman I had a crush on.
She was a 20 year old stunning red-head who was staying at the same lake lodge as my family when I was little.
She used to walk around all day in a white bikini....driving all the guys crazy!
Her family and mine became good friends for awhile. She was such a wonderful person....I fell hard for her.
Slowly as we grew older both our family's went our separate ways.

But....to this day, I have never forgotten her!
Hmmmm. You think that's why I love red-heads so much, am a red-head and use an avatar that's one?? LOL

Kat
05-22-2005, 10:00 PM
When I accepted that I love to CD, I asked myself what my name was. I guessed that my unconscious already knew. It told me that my name is Kat.

I like that it's monosyllabic. I like that it’s formed by two sharp consonants. I like its color.

(I never accused my unconscious of being rational).

TaylorAB
05-22-2005, 10:11 PM
My first choice for a name was actually Mary Katherine after my sweet deceased grandmother. However, I figured if I ever did come out that my father probably wouldn't like me naming myself after his mother. LOL

My second choice was Melissa after a coworker that I used to talk to alot. After I started writing poetry about what was going on inside of me, I started using the name Taylor Alexis Brown. It just seemed to fit and I have stuck with it ever since.

Porn name, hmm, I don't think that my porn name would be any good. My pet was male, however I'll share it and a variation of my cd name.

Jock Dakota - pet name + street name
Jock Edwards - pet name + mother's maiden name
Taylor Dakota - cd name + street name
Taylor Edwards - cd name + mother's maiden name

how i came with my cd name to tell you the truth is i don't know one day i just thought i i will name my self and jessica was the first name that poped in to my head

Clare
05-23-2005, 06:23 AM
Deciding on a name for my feminine self was as difficult as naming our Son!

For years i never even needed a fem name as my crossdressing times were few and far between. However, when it came to the time where i thought it would be nice to have a name for my 'girl', the name Laura popped into my head and i settled on that for the interim.

But back in 2001/02 when my wife was pregnant, we were considering names for the baby and she suggested Laura if was to be a girl! Arrggg! Since my wife did not know about my CD'ing, i couldn't have the same name as my child (we had a boy anyway).

Recently, when i asked my wife to do a makeup job on me for fun (she's an AVON rep), she said no way Christine! So at that point, i accepted that name - thank you dear! For these forums, i didn't want to use my real name (its an uncommon one and would be quickly recognised by people who know me), so while wondering what name to use, i heard a TV news reporter say her name, so i thought that would do - so that's where the Johnstone comes from!

Anyway, i'm reasonably happy with my title - what do you think of it?

Christine.

Milla
05-23-2005, 08:36 AM
I choose Milla for these forums Cuz I find Milla Jovovich an absolutely beautiful women. But I have no Cd name nor name for my inner fem side. Not yet and perhaps never.

Hi all
This is my first post having just joined and I thought I might get a feel of the site before I posted, however this topic tickled my fancy.
I came up with my girly name after seeing a porn film called “Mandy” the star of the film was so sexy that there and then I decided I would like to look just like her.

WendyLau
05-23-2005, 10:37 AM
Wendy was the name of my first girlfriend. I chose Lau becuase I had originally wanted to dress up like an asian girl. (I have a very strong fetish for all things asian.) It just ended up sticking.

Porn name?

Miss Wendy Soft.

I like to do everything soft.

Amelia Moxon

I chose Michelle because it was the name of a very pretty GG that i really fancied at school, and it just kinda stuck.

I have used this name for almost 5 years and it seems to fit, so no changing now.

After turning into somewhat of a redhead latley ,the name Sabrina realy sounds nice,, it was a red headed Sabrina the gave me my first kiss a looooooong time ago, that may explain my fascination with the firey Red head GG's today :)

Well-- Marie is actually my Femme middle name. I'm not telling my 1st name yet. :o
Anyway, the way I came up with Marie is quite simple. I've always liked the name Mary. Marie is the French version of Mary and I've got to admit that it sounds even sweeter than Mary especially sandwhiched in between my first and last femme names.
So, Thats how I came up with my my screen name. As for a porn name... this girl would never have one of those! :eek:

I had just re-committed to my femininity about 6 years ago and began to make plans to acquire a wardrobe and meet other girls in a social stting. About the same time, I began to think that I would need a feminine name. Almost instantly the name came into my consciousness and I knew it was mine. Not to be metaphysical or anything, but it literally dropped into my heart. Now I am glad to share it with all of you and especially with Leta, whom I miss so much while she is visiting her aunt in Canada. There is no way that I could call myself by my male name while dressed. I love it when people are polite and call me by Greta when appropriate. I feel very empowered and honored to be associated with women. Names are very powerful, are they not? Hugs to all of my sisters and especially to Leta.....xoxo Greta

A most interesting thread. It is fun to learn what we could name ourselves if left up to us.

Sherry came from a song. I don't remember the title (I'm terrible about such things) but I'm sure some of you will recognize the line:

"Sherry, won't you come out and play?"

I've had it for almost 10 years. Sherry has her own credit card (and much better credit than her male persona), and gets mail in her name.

My porn name would be Spots Beacon (using the pet/street).

[QUOTE=Miss Sherry]A most interesting thread. It is fun to learn what we could name ourselves if left up to us.
Sherry has her own credit card (and much better credit than her male persona), and gets mail in her name.


Miss Sherry how did you get the credit card and have better credit with out a social security card? in which case you would still have the same credit as your male counter part. Maybe you could start a thread on how to build a new identity. :cool:

I'm wondering..... could you, (if - heaven forbid - the authorities wanted to do something nasty to you,) be done for fraud? I'm not sure. Another grey area in the law! :p

Whoops, thread successfully hijacked.... wasn't intentional. honest! :D

I'm older and don't exactly feel sexy and beautiful. So I chose a plain name that didn't come anywhere near close to my real name.

Hugs girls,

In 6th grade there was this beautiful girl named Mona who always seemed mysterious because she didn't talk much or have many friends, I always wanted to get to know her so now in a way I guess I do.

I just chose a name that I liked and I felt suited me.

My problem then was that when I transitioned I used that name as my 'adopted' name, so I had to think of another name for when I come here (on the off-chance that someone who knows me comes here).

I never chose my name, I was christened by a former GF whom I was with in the early to mid 90s and used to help me dress.

One day she had helped with my dressing and make-up and announced that she didn't want to keep calling me by my male name so when I was dressed she would call me Gemma.

She said it was her favourite name and what she had wanted to be called when she was a little girl.

Until then my femme persona never had a name. We split up 10 years ago but I still use the name now, even though I only started dressing again recently.

Aspen with the help of a friend came up with her full name last night. We were thinking about my favorite kind of glistening and shimmering tree.we talked about why I liked it and then looked at my personality and humor and my cd friend said my last name should be colorado because thats where aspen trees grow and all that was left was my middle name tree so that everyone knows what motivated aspen. so here it is ASPEN TREE COLORADO. LOL I gues thats a good drag name to What do you think

My fem name is derived form my first name James and my fem last name is for my love of warm weather. Both were given to me by a gay friend of mine. Love being Jessica :) It feels so naturally for me to be dressed.

I really don't want to get off-subject, but I do feel I should clarify something.

What I meant by Sherry having better credit ... her card is a "second name" card, using my initial credit/SS, etc. but from a different bank than my others. However; that account is only used by her, exclusively. When she applied (and received) a JC Penny card, that was the only reference used.

Sorry if I mislead anyone, it wasn't intentional but written more in jest.

I love the name Aspen ... unusual, soft, and rather lyrical!

Sherry doesn't have a middle name .. M.m.m.m Sherry Aspen Broten

Mind if I borrow it?

Sherry :)
