I've had a few different names over the last few years, I like to refresh things every now and then, keep in touch with where I'm at.
Bouncy is just such an aesthetically pleasing word - The shaping of the word itself pleases me on a typographic design level, and the word's connotations
just feel like an adequate representation of who I enjoy being - Fun, silly, sexy, energetic, all over the place!
-
I use the name 'Nico' and Robin because, 'Nico' in Japanese is another way of saying smile or smiley ect. ;) and to be honest I think I have a good smile but I just don't use this very often to find out :) and the name 'Robin' comes from one my male name is Robert so I wanted something that began with 'R' and also I just love the name and feel towards the name 'Robin' and decided to place both them together :D
-
I chose Ashley because it's a more female version of Ashton. And because I already would respond to it when teachers in grade school would just skim my name in roll call. Seemed natural I guess.
-
"Deb" resembles my boy name in many ways .. and "Weller", well let's just say "W" plays a part in my name, too. Wish I could think of a nice, feminine, middle name that started with W ...
-
I chose the name of a very close friend I had many years ago. We were so much alike in *almost* every way - lol :) And it's not very common, surprisingly.
I always thought it was a beautiful name, and it brings back nice memories :)
-
My real name is Richard. After doing some research about female variations of Richard I settled on Richelle.
I'm new here and although I've been dressing in the closet for over 50 years I am so happy I've found a place that I think I can be with friends.,
Richelle52
-
Laurie is just my real name with a couple or letters moved around, and a letter added. It seems to fit, and I can easily respond to it as my real name sounds close to it.
-
Pam is the name I choose because they were the initials of a married woman who I greatly admired.
-
I chose Konnie as it is derivative of my male name, but conveys a sense of femininity too :)
-
Mine is simple - one additional letter to my "boy" name!
-
my name is auste, it sounnds very softly for me :)
-
because Lola was too cliché? lol Gloria just kind of came to me and it just stuck..
-
I started with MakeupRox as a screen name because...well, it does. It this point it is looking like Roxy is going to be a winner for a while.
-
The first time I dressed in front of my with, she looked at and told me I look like a Carroll, and it stuck.
-
I took the name Andrea from a very dear friend of mine who I think guessed I dressed a long time ago but never judged never said a bad thing we would talk about fashion and talk together for hours and hours , she is a lovely person and I honour her with her name
-
My name is a mix of my first and last name. I just like the way it sounds :)
-
Well Ashley is a female variant of my middle name, and the n stands for Nicole (not a weird spelling or typo on my part with the screenname). No particular reason for the use of the name Nicole just liked the way it sounded.
-
I’ve chosen Robyn as it sounds soft and dainty to me, which is how I feel en femme. Additionally, it has some similarities to my male name.
-
I Picked Annabel Cause i have a cousin named anna that and i always thought it was a cute name
-
I just like the name Victoria!
:)
-
I originally thought I'd go with Tiffany but after more thinking I decided to just feminize my real name by adding an extra E. Kelly to Kelley
-
Vanessa is the name that struck a chord in me.
My two favorite female names have been Rachel and Rebecca--I once knew twin sisters with those names, but neither felt right.
I like the idea that I can create my own image, complete with name, unlike my birthright. I did the typical search of names on the internet but just didn't get that tingle.
Then, I looked up at my photo gallery in my office (I am a photographer) and saw the beautiful 20-something young women I photographed a few years ago. She looked similar to what I would have looked like at that age, and I liked the font I used for her name on the photo.
Zing! I knew immediately that I am Vanessa :-)
-
I chose Katherine because of my fascination with Katherine Hepburn. One of the best actresses
-
my female name is Rachel. I chose it because of the show" Friends" watching Rachel Green, who is Jennifer Aniston.
-
I just joined and was required to give a screen name. I had never considered a female name before, so I had to think it through. I didn't want to use a name of anyone I knew at work (to avoid any weirdly uncomfortable feelings when I go more public with this). I avoided family names for the same reason. I kept coming back to Karen. That was the name of one of my early schoolboy crushes (a devastating one, I might add!), and when I remembered that the character portrayed by the beautiful, sexy and hilarious Megan Mullally in Will & Grace was also named Karen, it was kismet. And so a new Karen is born.
-
I selected Kandi because it is the complete antithesis of me. I am pretty close to the vest and conservative, slow to open up to new things. I also dislike how names are often contorted with strange spellings. I also wanted to keep my initials the same (not sure why) and didn't want the name to be anyone I knew. So, Kandi (not Candy, a traditional spelling) was born. She's cute, open, loving, accepting, giving and, if I must say, a damn fine person. Anyway you know what, she is really helping me become those things too!!!
-
I have always liked Katherine, Katie. To me a very feminine name. Many great and wonderful women with the name. Taylor is for Elizabeth Taylor, not much to say about her, except she was one of the most beautiful women ever.
-
Jacqueline became my name, because when I lived in Europe I became friends with a lovely, feminine woman by this name. I always wanted to be as soft, confident and attractive as she was. It is pronounced in the French way, and I have worked very hard to make my body look like hers....with some success.
-
I picked Lucy in a hurried attempt to come up with an identity for a forum a while ago. The name is very similar to my male name, and hence, I figured, easy to remember.
Since then the name has grown on me. I've always just liked the sound and I've always hated long names. So awkward and clunky.
-
I chose Angela as I think it sounds femanine, and that is exactly the way I want to, and do feel!!
-
I went for lucy as its pretty much my guy name and i feel my fem side should not be too separate as an identity. but i also went with tauriel as a surname because of the elf from the hobbit. :P
-
I didn't really have a female name/persona until I registered for this site. Jonna is an extention of my given name (one guess what that is), and it appears to be unique to this site which is good. I may decide to change it after more deliberate thought.
-
-
I picked Sarah as i have always found it a pretty name.
-
I never really thought about choosing a name until I needed to register for this site. I thought through the names that I liked and they all reminded me of someone and I knew but I didn't want to be linking my femme side to someone in my male life.
Anyway I just didn't really know any Sophies and now I do!
Apart from that I just love the sound of the name.
-
Well, I suppose it was bound to happen as my life changed, but I've decided on a name change. (It rolls off the tongue a little easier, and draws a bit less attention without losing any of the exotic cache.)
-
My fem name is Erika Lyne, Erika is my first name or E for short. Unlike most people's replies, I did not name myself. I tried to but it felt wrong. My thoughts on a name seem to be a little different than most. My awkward feeling was because a person doesn't typically name themselves at birth. A friend named me Erika and my wife gave me her middle name, she also gave it to our younger daughter--so it fits. My first name (male) also starts with an E, this makes Erika appropriate. I couldn't go by the female name my mother would have named me if I were born a girl, it too would be awkward because I have a younger cousin with the same name.
-
I have always had a special affinity for the name Rebecca. I remember when I was younger that I would always want to respond when someone said Rebecca or Becky. I guess she was always in me, just took some coaxing to let her out.
-
I think I replied to this last year, but ive not been out for that long,.. anyway My name LaurelAnne was picked by my mother, when I was 13 , she caught me dressed up and started calling me Lauren(my boy name is Larry) it evolved to Laurel-Anne. Ive also used Victoria ans Seana, but always come back to Mom s choice
-
I've had so many names I've lost track! Originally I was Catherine, the name I would have been given if I was a girl. I've stuck with Melissa for some time now though.
-
For a long time, I called her Tori simply because I love the name Victoria. The more she evolved and the more I could see her personality come out, I decided she needed a name that was a better fit. Now I'm going with Melody.
-
My name - Katie H. Marion
I always liked the name Katharine, probably because of Katharine Hepburn (notice the spelling, Hepburn spelled it with two “a”s). I always loved her independence, intelligence and femininity. I try to present myself with her self assurance and demeanor. I like Katie for day to day use. I think it is less formal and gives a more relaxed and fun presentation.
The middle initial H is from an old family name.
How I picked Marion is somewhat random. I was thinking about names during a drive along the South Carolina coast. I had decided on Katie and the middle initial H but needed a last name. Just then we passed a sign announcing we had just entered the Francis Marion National Forest. You can't ignore a message like that; so I became Katie H. Marion.
-
I do love the name Christina and the nick name Crissy for short. I choose it because it's not far from my birth name. I am who I am! :)
-
Not sure why but I've ways liked the name Emma. And it can be shortened into Em, which I think is a cute little nickname.
-
Great name, but I am a little biased.
Katie H.
-
I have to admit to not having considered it before signing up here. However, I really like the name Nicole, so here we are. Funny how we get to choose our own names now - if I had any input on my parents' naming me at birth, I would've told them to 100% NOT give me the name they did.
-
I've tried a few different names over the years. First one was Jackie, then used Jennifer for a while and now using Jessica. For some reason I feel compelled to keep the same initials as the male persona, not sure why? It's not like I have any monogrammed luggage that I use :)
-
My name is Julie and took the JuliaX35 as username. First letter the same as my firstname and choose Julie because "it sounds good" to me. So simple as that.
-
I chose Mia because it is a simple yet cute name. I think it fits my female persona:) maybe I'd go with Mikayla if I had another choice haha
-
When I was a teen, I went to work for a wonderful, strong lady who owned a restaurant. Her name was Bernice and everyone called her Bea. She was in her mid 40's and had just lost her husband to a heart attack. She had dealt with more trouble in her life than most of us could imagine. Her approach to life was to meet it head on, keep a smile on your face and maintain a positive attitude. Anytime I was down, hurt or feeling bad she would stand up, all 4'9" and 85 lbs of her, and begin wagging her finger at me telling me to get ahold of myself and deal with whatever problem I was having. All through the rest of my life anytime things weren't going my way, I would think of her and begin dealing with my issue at the time.
