My sister's suggestion, she thought it would be good as i wouldnt have to change my initials :) but id kinda choosen the name 'Alice' at that time (probably because it felt like i was falling down a rabbit hole hehe).
Since returning to the forum, i decided to go with the name she mentioned. The 'Dee' was just random though lol, i thought it sounded nice :) + there were tons of other Rachels so i had to pick something to make it different lol.
Well, my mother has always told me she wanted me to be a girl... if she only khew how right she is. And she would name me Gracielle! :) I think it really is a wonderful name!
Vicky is my favourite girls name, as simple as that but I have always preffered spelling it Vikki.
Evelyn, coined by my current partner. I like it a lot :]
Sarah came from my science teacher a few years back she was an amazing person, really inspired me in quite a few things :)
Because that would have been my name if born a girl (Joan Michelle)
From a song but it was spelled "Zoe" so I did it my own way.
"Zoe Jane" by Staind (I love that song)
The process for choosing my female name was an interesting one. It was a team effort by me and my fiance. Lauren would have been my name had I been a genetic girl. I love the name of Jennifer and my last name of Weiss was created because it sounded good and feminine.
I chose Lauren because it is very close to my real name, didn't realize it was so popular in the CD world. I'll stay with it, I like it.
I chose mine from a character I've spent time creating in one of my books. Beretta. I always felt that I identified more with her than I did with the male co-protagonist who was originally supposed to be based off of me...
Not really origional but my real name is Michael so I went with Michelle.
I wanted something different, so I chose Aya. It's one of my favourite Japanese style names, and I was inspired by my favourite Japanese voice actress, Aya Hirano. And plus it doesn't sound too strange in English, which many Asian names do.
My Name Marlene came from a very fun girl I knew in college - She was funny, smart, and just gave off this very feminine vibe - So I took her name to honor my memories of her.
diana!!!!
...but my friends who know i am a crossdresser say i am always rui (my real/male name)...
Mine is simple. It was the name I had picked out for a girl if I ever had one. I was blessed with two boys and no girls, so I decided to take it for myself.
Mine is from my Gorgeous Wife's middle name and my mums maiden name XX
Same thing as Kimberly who started this thread. My mom once told me she was sure she was going to have a girl when pregnant with me (as far as I'm concerned she did) and was going to name her Donna June. She liked the name Donna and I was to be born in June, so since it was to be my name I kept it and liked it. If it wasn't for that I probably would've chosen Melanie. There is another Donna June around who has a website. She is into the 50's look and named herself in honor of Donna Reed and June Cleaver.
Ever since I was little I've loved the name Stacy. Chambers is from the now-defunct (a pity; it was very good) restaurant Chambers Kitchen in Minneapolis, MN. The two names just seemed to fit well together.
I found a website where you enter your name and it will search for names of either or both gender that might be related to it along with all the possible spellings for it. There are other options as well but I don't remember and if I ever find that website again, I will post it.
Kendra was the name of a girl I had a crush on in Middle / Junior High School. She was quite the early bloomer, developing well before the rest of the girls in class. She was the first girl near my age whose curves reminded me of the swimsuit models in the magazine. Gardner is simply a tribute to Ava Gardner -- a classic brunette beauty whose charms could tame the most powerful men in the world.
I never really had one until I joined the forum and Davina just popped into my head during the sign on process. The same day my wife decided to call me Michelle when I am en femme. I'll answer to both!
I have always loved the name "Tracy"! I knew a girl back in gradeschool with that name, and she was the most feminine girl in school. I'd love to be like her!
There was this girl in high school that was a tall female version of me. I thought she we kinda looked a like, and i had a huge crush on her. So I took the name Katrina.
Katrina is a pretty name too. I like it, as well as tall women(and guys!)Quote:
