I named myself Cindy after the character in the 90's T.V. show "Just The Ten Of Us". I wanted to be a red head and the Cindy character was one. Also my first name begins with the letter "C". I found out later that the first girls name given by my mother if me or my brothers would have been a girl would have been Cynthia.
my male name is Al but my female name Lisa is a connection of my two letters A is L now turn it around as in a mirror and viola LisA. Al is Lisa is Al.
Narrowed it down to 3...Kirstie from a character in my first novel; Evangaline from my love of Louisiana; but I went with Torrey because I love Torrey Pines in San Diego (I prefer the glider port because as much as I enjoy golf, I suck at any challenging course).
My wife gave me the name Morgan. I use Anna as my middle name and my wife's last name in girl mode.

eric is my middle name lynn sounded right and stone is my feeling of isolation
Amawa Hibiki , I wanted a Japanese name since I have been connected to them personally my entire life. Hibiki is unisex but mostly used for girls, meaning sound/echo. It also is a real name used by a CD to get a job at a school that did not hire male teachers.
I chose my name from the first time I was caught wearing pantyhose. They were my Mom's and my stepdad caught me.
He teased me for days and called me Charlene. I guess really, I liked the name and sooooooooooo.

i sat there pondering for some time what to go with but i decided on lisa marie because im an elvis tribute in my everyday life and an elvis fan obviously so i just went with his daughters name as it seemed to hit the nail on the head for what suited
my wife named me can't argue with that
I selected my name because they bare the names of my 2 cousins who intoduced me to my "fem" side..
My wife chose mine! Marcia, and I like it!!
I went from Chris to Crissy. I made it easy for myself.
My male name didn’t offer any variations that I liked. I also didn’t want to use anything that sounded like a cheesy stage name. There are several female names that I had always liked. But, at the time I was trying to select a femme name to use, it seemed like each one was also the name of a friend, co-worker or close relative. I didn’t need something totally unique, but still wanted a name that felt more personal to me and not one that reminded me of someone I knew. Then, I remembered that about 25 years earlier, a distant relative (both in connection and location) had a baby and named her Savannah. At the time I had thought that it was one of the prettiest and most unusual girl names I had ever heard. I believe that I only saw her once as an infant and most likely will never see her again. I had almost forgotten about it because I had rarely seen it since then and not as the name of anyone I really knew. I have sometimes used it as Savannah and sometimes drop the “h” on the end.
The first name of one and middle name of the other of two of my grand daughters. Since they don't use their names, I figured I would. Besides, it just 'kinda flows'.
Of course, I could have been EmmaRose for the same reasons.
I choose my name after loving the sound of it~ Alisa
i met a gorgeous stripper back in the 70's and her stage name was Stella...i always loved it (..and the 'streetcar' thingie just added the aaahhh for me)
love the name 'Caitlyn'
This is from a post of mine in another thread concerning names: I had always liked the name Kathy and used it as my fem name forever. Paraphrasing from another thread regarding naming: I learned a few years ago that some baby name personality study defined Kathy as a dark-haired woman who is quiet, friendly and very kind which fits me very well. While signing up for CrossDressers.com I decided that I needed a middle name. I always liked Renee. I looked up Renee and one source said that Renee meant reborn or born again. I considered my acceptance of my fem side a rebirth. Joining CrossDressers.com was a rebirth of sorts as I have begun to step out of the closet. My first and middle fem names are very precious to me.
About 7 years ago I chose Missy after converting my middle name to Michelle but it not sounding right. Michelle sounded too prim and proper for my personality and after working through Mishy in chat rooms Missy came to me.
Thank Stella.
Somehow the names DID just 'flow' to me. I could have been a feminized version of my male name and been Lauren. Somehow, it just didn't sound feminine enough and Lord knows I AM sometimes the most 'girly' of girls. Gives me the shivers when I'm feeling 'that' way and 'that' way seems to be coming more and more these days.
Hello Girls, M male name is has no gender so i simply added a y
Patty
I've gone through several name changes, but most recently I chose the name Amber. There too many Nikki's out there.
I chose Ashleigh because I think it's just what I look like while en femme...which is interesting, because I'm told that I really look like a Patrick (legal name) when I'm in male clothing...I also chose that spelling because I like how it looks written or typed :-)
As for Dearborn...I really like fall colors, and Dearborn brings fall to mind...wasn't Athena's symbol a dear? Maybe that's reading too much into it...
I picked Willow, because my mom always calls me that, and it kinda a feminine name, I guess. :P I like it very much too.
I've never really considered applying an alternate female-name to myself, until hanging around here.. And when first logging on to this forum in curiosity, I had *NO* idea I'd be returning, so my alias was picked in haste.
I've read many good ideas here for finding a meaningful name (thank you). Plus, my alias of "neverenough" doesn't really fit my female persona, and look.
I've come down to "Natalee". This is a merging of my name, and the girl who claimed my virginity ohhh so many years ago. Plus I like the name.
So thoughts?? Does the name fit? Respond here I guess, or put a PM on my profile page!
