Your Female Name

My Name Natasha was Chosen by my wife when I came out to her.

My name is Gillian it came about purely because i like the name.

I've always found the name Stacy to be a very pretty name and it also has a sexy edge to it as well.

I chose the name Sandy in tribute to the one and only Sandra Bullock, whom I have always had a crush on.

Tania was chosen because my first girlfriends name was Tania. Interestingly enough she was the first person to dress me up in female attire, and she did it a few more times after the first. When you are young and in love you will do anything to please your partner.
Despite my protests at the time (a time in your life when you are trying to come across as a macho guy), I really enjoyed it. I wish she was still my girlfriend.

my femme name is Tonya Rose. ( i just added an A to my first mane and cut my last name in half..)

When I first time dressed and my wife saw me, she said "You are Natasha". And I live with this name till now and like it.

Was sat at home one evening with my wife when her daughter walked into the room asking which shoes / outfit combo her Mum preferred - I chipped in with my two penneth worth only to receive the response "look at you gossip girl" - my wife & I laughed at this at the time (I'd only recently started wearing panties in front of my wife) and I got to thinking about GG which inevitably led to GiGi.

My username, Avrial, is actually not what I go by. It's a name I made up several years ago. My wife and I would like to use it when we have kids, so I can't use it for myself.

I go by Quinn to anyone who doesn't need to know by real name. It's a true gender-neutral name, so it works in every presentation for me. I don't know how I ever came up with Quinn, but I started using it in college when people asked for my name.

Asking my Mum what she would have called me if I'd been born a girl. I've been "Heather" since.

Ive always shared my Feminine side with my wife but never opened up to this extent..Loving her immensely , i found her to be quiet normal and now have her understanding and full support in me being her new girlfriend as well as wife...she chose my name ...Im Mandy !

Seeing as I am still very new to this I never had any hard thought put into my "other" name so I was just thinking and then Jessie just popped into my head. Still a guys name and a girls name at the same time. So I am content with Jessie :)

I remember my mother telling me a couple of times when I was growing up that if I had been born a girl she would've named me Danielle. So, I figured it was as good a name as any to use while en femme. I picked the last name Glass because I've always felt very fragile coming to terms with side of me.

Mine's a comic book reference. Initially the character shared the body of a male character. When her consciousness took over, the body appeared female. Seemed fitting :)

I chose Chelsea because if i was a female thats what i would of liked to have been called and my last name danvers because miss marvel is one of my favorite superheroes.

I picked Natasha because I think its pretty.

Hi! Just joined, this looks like the place to start. :wave:
I’m not really sure why “Abigale” I think it was natural selection...
When thinking about a name for myself (usually our prerogative) I went through all the girl names I knew and if it conjured up an image of a girl from school/college/work etc. I rejected it, not sure why maybe I didn’t want her image in my head “getting in the way” of "me".
I don’t know anyone called Abigale and therefore I am!
On top of that I chose one of the rare spelling versions !
Abigale

mikee here i got mine from my middle name mike but mikee is pronounced mickey
:battingeyelashes:

What beautiful names here!

I chose Savannah as I did not know any Savannah's so it was unique for me and just kind of fit with my softer more ladylike side.

The Skye part I added as just "Savannah: was taken. Thinking quick while Agents of Shield was on, I added Skye...lol

Robyn is the feminine version of my first name. I think it's a nice name as its the real me.

I'll go with sophie when time comes and i grew the balls to do my first attempt at passing. Using the female version of my real name isn't an option. Sounds too strange and is complicated. I first thought about becoming Vanessa or Pia, but Sophie is best in my opinion.

Got all dressed up one day with the SO and it was blurted out by the SO Jenny come in here. So it stuck and Jenny lives to come out and play every chance she gets

My male name is John Allen Lambert. I choose the Name Joan Ellen Lambert because I only had to change one letter in my first and middle name that I liked.:battingeyelashes:

I was christened JULIAN so find JILL appropiate

Jaimie is similar to James. You can call me Jai.

Leah is very similar to my given name. Ann is just an embellishment i liked.

I had a former colleague many years ago called Siobhan who was a very classy dresser so when I started dressing properly I chose it in tribute to her :-)

I never really thought much about a female name as a closeted CD, only discretely wearing things under my normal clothes. I had a name or two that I had fantasized about, but did not give the idea of an actual female name until I decided to join the forum.

At first I used the last name of a character I would use in other forums, and picked a first name that sounded OK. But as I waited for forum approval, I found I didn't like it too much and thought of others.

I had always liked the movie G.I. Jane with Demi Moore about the first female Navy Seal candidate, especially her awesome comeback when they try to get her to quit. Her character in the film is where I got my name from.

Tori because I just fell in love with that name

I chose Michelle since it is like my middle name and I think it's a pretty name.

I've always liked "Alison" and all similar names.
Then one time we had a 21st Century Fairy Tale dress-up party. There were princesses, wolves, little red riding hoods, knights, and fairies. After a short consideration I dressed up as Alice in Wonderland just for fun. I asked my wife for a dress that fit me, borrowed a wig, didn't really try much for anything else. I have to tell you I've had a blast that night. So the name stuck. Occasionally my wife goes "oh, Alice!" should I do something girly nowadays. And I find the name fitting my feminine side.

I chose Lisa or Melissa after my favorite cousin she would always make me laugh when we were younger we were very close. She always was the one trying to dress me up even though I wouldn't ask her I would just let her.

I never had a female name, but when it came to pick up one, Jennifer immediately came into mind. I guess that is because Jennifer is always part of me.

Back in the 1970's my female name was Maureen Fleming. I have had others over the years, but Arlene has been my moniker for years.

I had a friend when I was young that always looked so fem and desirable I wanted to look like her. She moved when we were in senior year of high school so my fem name is more or less my tribute to her as a good friend and inspiration.

Elizabeth

I chose my name based on one of my favorite singers/actresses here in Japan Sarina Suzuki and then Curtis is my middle name. Close enough to my real name that I'll respond to it and one that rolls over the lipstick easily.

Amy is the first name that popped in my head and I felt really comfortable with it

I met a girl one time that was named Kayla and liked it and it felt right.

My favorite lingerie to wear ever since I started at 10 was lacy lingerie and my mom had a lot of it which I loved to slip into. Once I realized how fem and attracted I was to dressing I needed a nice fem name and Lacy came to mind as think it's quite pretty.

Claire, because I love Robin Wright wardrobe in "House of Cards"

Rosalie or Rosaliy, was based on a key ring I fond back in high school. The name was Rosa Lee I believe. I joined alt.com and needed a new me to reflect my coming out and an open honest, nothing to hide attitude. So I asked for Rosalie which was already taken. I simply changed the 'e' to a 'y' and viola, Rosaliy. My old gf was Sherry Lynne and I, for whatever reason, have always loved 'Lynne' names, with or without the trailing e or the double n. Rosaliy Lynne became my alt.com name and that served two purposes. Rosa was much more open even to accepting and declaring her underlying male basis for existence, and it kept that part distinct and separate from my undernet personna. Of course putting out my initial profile and pictures sorta revealed, what was over due to be known anyway, and pointing to my yahoo.com photo albums has removed the separation. The total name is terribly unique in that It was entirely constructed around my femme side.

Brianna works for me.Its a play off my given name Brian.

So as you can see I've had a name change. I've always loved the name Alexis. I do some fantasy wrestling writing and one of my character's names is Alexis Caffrey. Also, being a huge fan of the wrestler AJ Lee I wanted a similar initial type name. After some consultation with a friend, she came up with the name Jade. So there's Alexis Jade or as you girls can call me...AJ!

Thanks All,
AJ

For the longest time I was a crossdresser without a female name. Sometime in the '80s I was playing a text adventure game that allowed you to play it in either male mode or female mode. After playing awhile in male mode I decided to try it in female mode. When it asked my name I typed in the name of an old girlfriend. When the game started addressing me as Barbara it was the most incredible feeling. Like I felt this tingling down to my toes and all strange inside. And that's when my CD alter ego got her name.

Many years later I started dabbling in genealogy. Tracing back my matrilineal line was tough, but I got lucky and traced as far back as my 3x great grandmother, Barbara Driscoll. Of the hundreds of people in my family tree, she is the only Barbara I am related to by blood. So when I needed something to add to Barbara for this site, that was what came to mind. It's also a bit of a tweak at that side of the family - very religious and very conservative, and who, thank goodness, are not at all interested in genealogy.

Stephanie here just feminizing my male name of Steve.

This is Fernanda, a name given to me by my first crossdresser friend on internet... I like this name thouh

Nikki for me, actually the name of an early girlfriend. Memories of a few Halloweens together where she was happy to see me dressed up

I chose Luna because of a book of the same name I read years ago about a TG teenager. It was originally Amaryllis, but I was told by many people it sounded too picked even though that's what my mom wanted to name me were I born female.

Luna.

I picked Ceera as sort of a variant on Sarah. I wanted a unique name, liked how it sounded, and I'd never met anyone named Ceera. It didn't come up very readily on Internet searches back in 2002 or so, but it was a valid female name.

My real first name actually is gender neutral. I've met both guys and girls with that name (which is the name of a bird). But I wanted a clear separation between my female and male aspects, so I don't use any part of my real name as a woman.

This really is a good topic! For some reason I had a hard time for years settling on a name.

Nothing that came to my mind ever seemed right. And it was really annoying: that girl in me somehow stayed nameless for quite a long time.

Then one day, I decided to imagine what my life would have been, had I been born a girl. So I started writing down this alternate life, and before I knew it, I found my name: Calliope. Because I'm part greek, because I love that name, and most of all it seemed totally natural and accepted it immediately.

So here I am. I am Calliope.
