Your female name *merged threads*

I dont think i would actually have a female name if there was no net & forums etc.. i just picked my name becouse i like it... but it does suit me, somehow.

I had used Julia at a T-girl group I first came out at, but after a change of area and a bit of a dressing lull I decided I preferred Debs (or Debbie). No reason other than I just like the name. I do think it kind of suits me somehow.

A friend gave it to me who really unlocked my desires once and for all. She was the first one to help me with my makeup, hair(wig), and outfits. She dressed me and undressed me for hours and it felt so good. By the end of it all she had named me and still calls me that to this day.

I just love the name Kate. Simple but nice.

For years I never had a name because there wasn't a need for one. When I arranged to go to a dressing service I realised that it might be a good idea if they referred to me by something other than my male name.

So I started working my way through the alphabet - but starting from Z because I delight in being different :D As you can see I didn't get very far. I once knew a Zoe, smart, sophisticated, sexy - in fact all the things I'm not :eek:

Zoe

My real name in Don and wanted to keep it similar. Therfore, Daun was it.

It came to me in a spontaneous devotional ritual.

Do you chose a name you like or one that best suits who and what you are inside?

I am going to take a second entry on this. I originally signed on with just Sue_cd to keep it simple (later dropped the CD as I saw no one had taken Sue before). But now that I am branching out on-line and off-line, having just a first name doesn't distinguish me. So to add a last name, I went through the family genealogy and I picked out Leighton.

So for those of you seeing Sue Leighton outside of this forum, you now know it is me.

My fem name, Celes, has a few origins that are special to me. First is a character name in my favorite game from Super Nintendo, Final Fantasy 3 (6)'s General Celes. That game was so well done and her storyline was one I found myself especially interested in. Just thinking about that game brings back a lot of very fond memories.

Second would be from dreams. I have had one strong reoccurring dream for the past two or three years and counting of being in various (usually science fiction space based, thank you Star Treck, Star Gate, and Star Wars franchises *shakes her fist*) different situations with my dream girl Celes. I don't know anyone with the name personally, and always see her as a woman about my height, medium to short black hair, fairly slim. A lot similar to myself in build really, perhaps even my subconscious reflection of my fem self (I only can hope to look as good as her though!).

The whole feminine name thing was pretty weird at first--I sort of didn't get it. Then after thinking about it a while I chose something pretty elaborate --Evianna. It is very feminine and I still like it. But for simplicity I just took Andy and made it Andi since the name easily goes both ways (ahuhmp!). I then added the "e" as that is the more familiar spelling (Andie McDowell).

As a man my friends call me Jack. I guess Jill would fit right in.

I always liked the name Cathie and I thought the spelling was different like me. It was as close to my real name so...........

Mine is close to my real name (although my name could be unisex I guess)
Shawn to Sheila

A friend of mine helped me come up with it :)

I chose Samantha Anne somewhat on a whim, but I have grown to really like it.

When I signed up initially for the forum I decided to use my masculine name John. Since then I have had a change of heart, and requested that my user name be changed from JohnH to JohannaH. Johanna as a feminine variant of John is very close to the Hebrew or Aramaic name for John.

I have thoughts of having HRT floating around in my mind. If I were to transition to a woman Johanna would be the new name.

My real name is Julian which sounds a lot like Jillian. So I used Jill for short.
The surname of Devine is from a healthy dose of vanity. Hehehe.

My log on name is self explanatory Her wanna be my other name is Michelle my name is Michael soooo also my brother and others when I was in early 20's called me Michelle so much that I use to answer to it

Theresa just seemed a natural for me. It also allowed me to hang on my same initials

I came up with Rilulia because I really like old latin place names. But if I went with something traditional or close to my name Joseph - I'd most likely choose Johanna. So I guess I could have two names :P

mary would have been my name if i was born a girl and it's only one letter different from my boy name and it felt right, and the "m" is from the first letter of the last name of an artist's name on a nude painting i liked. my real last name doesn't start with "m"

I picked Danielle Patricia for a number of reasons but the most pertinent is the D in Danielle is the first letter of my first name, and the P in Patricia is the first letter in my middle name.:heehee: Besides I really like how Danielle Patricia sounds.:D

TTFN, kisses.:kiss:

Just added elle to my real name,kept it simple like me.

I sadly have no idea what my fem name would be. Given name is kenneth - any ideas?

my female name is Patricia Delicia
Patricia cos my male name's Patrick
Delicia cos it sounded flamboyant and I like flamboyant clothing

I am not sure why I picked Jess. I always thought the name Jess was hot, and since my dream is to put on a skimpy dress and go to the club, I want to be Jess. The hot brunette in a short black dress.

I usually go by Alison, i've put a lot of thought into my female name through the years, it is something that has always been on the back of my mind. I dont really remember how I ended up with Alison to be honest, but i really like the name, and i think it fits me and my personality.

I used to live on the corner of Amanda Street and Williams Street, hence my fem name Amanda Williams.

When Jennifer first went out in public in 1971, (40 years ago!) I chose a name with the same initials as my birth name. Jennifer because I like that name and Freeman because as Jennifer I am Free, but still a Man.
Jennifer Freeman

I am still not certain how serious I am about crossdressing but if I had a female name it would be Debra, most likely. Mainly because it is the first thing to come to mind. I might want a sexier name.....I dunno. I guess I will have to think about it.

My name comes from the show Bewitched, I loved her character. She was very beautiful and I also liked the idea of being a housewife when I first started dressing. These days I also think there is a bit of Samantha Jones from Sex In The City in me, very confident as opposed to the shy person I used to be when I was a child.

i always fancied my self an amy if i had been born a girl and the swan i dont no it just seemed to fit to me lol. any way i love it and thats all that matters right? he he. :)

I have had a couple of female names first it was rhianna then erica now Jenn or Jennifer I love it!

My female name is Sara, and I got it from an ex-girlfriend. Her oldest daughter's name is Sara, and she is the most beautiful little girl I've ever seen(not in a perverted manner, either)!! So, I figured that since I would never be as beautiful as her, at least I could share her beautiful name!! Plus is a good christain name!! ;-D

I've heard it from my mom a couple times that before I was born they thought I was going to be a girl. They were going to name me Michelle but then, defiant as always, it just didn't happen that way. So I guess I would say my female name is Michelle although I'm not too sure how keen I am on it.

Hi Kimberly Marie
I gave a great deal of thought and time to my name (I guess we all do) Helen is a name I have always loved whenever I have been intorduced to girls called Helen. I had wished if I were born a genetic girl that would have been my choice of name. Chapel is a family name but I'll say no more about that to protect the innocent! ;)
Hugs
helen xx

My real name is made up from the first initial of girls names. Kalyan, Alanah, Leigh, Leanne, Elizabeth and Natalie and I decide that I really like the name Kalyan and took that :) x

I picked my because it is close to my own. Only the female version. I also took my grandmothers maiden name just because I think it is pretty.

My boy name is Michael and I could have taken the easy route and go with Michelle but I decided to go with something exotic. Davorra was a woman i had a fun weekend a long time ago. Lots of happy memories and she was a most amazing redhead. So I took the name of Davorra to honor her memory where ever she is now.

Mandy because I liked the sound of it. :)

I chose my name from three parts

1) Annabelle - From the first girl I ever had a crush on
2) Marie - Thats my sisters name
3) Jorden - Is from my nom de plume

Not real imaginative, but I like it.

My first name starts with a C and my middle name an A plus I luv' the name Cynthia !!!

I chose willow because of the connection to nature. Also, like the tree, I bend very easily.

My mother told me if I had been born a GG she was going to name me Alicia Nicole so when I heard that I started to use that name.

Like many others, I picked Beverley as it would have been my name if I had been a girl.

I spent many, many hours trying to come up with a good femme name that I felt fit my personality. For me it's all about the phonetic "feel" of the name. I looked through countless baby names and used a couple random name generators. Finally found a generator that allowed for some customization and I eventually found the right one. The last name ("Everett") I just felt worked with the first name. Thus I am Krista Everett.

For all my 38 years of CDing I called myself Wendy, however I met my SO 3 years ago and she has a sister named Wendy. Refering to myself as Wendy just did not feel right so I changed to Jane (very origonal (-: ) but I see myself as androdine and my fem side is still me, so we don't really refer to Jane very much. My SO is more comfortablewith this arrangement wich makes me more comfortable to. I am one of the lucky ones as she is 100% understanding and supportive. I try not being dressed when she visits but she insists on seeing photos of me in all my ugly glory. Another plus is thatshe spoils me rottern and is forever buying me things from makeup to shoes. I am really lucky and I love her with all my heart, mind and soul.

Mine is Elizabeth Ann

I'm probably not the first too think this but i just think the name allie is really cute :D

When thinking of a name for my other half I wanted to use the same first letter as my male name (Ben) and came up with Becky just because i think its cute :)
