Thank you Marlana, I'm doubly glad it's not a very common name either!

Lol, I picked my femme name for the same reason; my parents had picked that name in case I was born a girl. Anna Lorree Gillespie. Lorree is a family name on my dad's side of the family.
I figured I have to live with what my parents picked as a male name, just as I would have if I had been born female, so why not use the name they had picked?
Anna
At one time I thought I made up the name Larissa so between that and having a girlfriend named Laurie I really liked I just linked the two together to have a unique set of feminine names. They help to feel girly when dressed girly.
Okay, so my mum who either has alzheimers or dementia has recently taken to calling me Carla. This is when I'm in guy mode. But actually I can relate to Carla from Coronation Street, so I'm switching from Nicki to Carla. It seems to fit.
I wanted a name that started with the same letter of my male name and I've always thought Jasmine was a pretty name so I went with it. I like it and it makes me feel good when I hear it.
I chose Mackenzie because I thought it was a really pretty name. And I didn't want a common name. Nothing wrong with those, just not for me .
I have always been Jennifer,but,I have entertained the name Samantha as well.
I got Leliana from from a game that I play Dragon age
I think Alinne is a cute name, and Lima I put because is the last name of a beatiful brazilian model who a like
Urmila is my fem name which was given to me by my wife and I loved it when she suggested it
I picked Julie because every woman I have ever met named Julie was beautiful and very impressive. And Madsen for Virginia Madsen. I love her,
How about Violeta. Pronounced (Vee - of - let- ah) It's the spanish version of Violet and much prettier sounding I think.
Pamela Kay is what my mother (who wanted a girl) was going to name me if I was a girl, she called me PJ for most of my younger years which was for Pam and my male name. So I guess I have really always been Pam.
Mine came about because my girlfriend liked it, picked it. The spelling because when I went to register here it wasn't taken. Sherrii. I like it though.
Kylie is a play on my middle name. I also really like Ashley, and I was leaning towards it, but I felt it wasn't me.
i don't know really. i've always loved the name. it's always felt like a part of me. plus, it's the name of one of my favourite people, emma anderson from lush!!!
i just like the name Stacy, it does have the first letter from my other name, it sounds sexy, and its goes with black hair,
A friend named me. It was so much better then anything i have tried before. When she named me. My first thought was "omg why didn't i come up with it. it makes perfect sence and feels right!!" best part is... it's a good nickname for my real name!! so i can use it all the time!!!
[SIZE="4"]Not sure but when my mother got her last cat it was a female calico and she named the cat Phoebe. I asked her why Phoebe? She said if I been born a girl she would have named me Phoebe. Then my sisters came later and they were named Judy and Nancy? I chose Janet, there was a neighbor girl who was pretty and named Janet, took that in memory of her. [/SIZE]
Mines Scarlett Lynn. A friend came up with it and i fell in love with it ever since then.
my partner who is also my best friend gave it to me. out of nowhere she called me sandy. i reacted by saying
" who's sandy?"
she went "you are silly"
"why sandy?"
"i don't know it makes sense and its sorta sounds like your last name."
since then i've been going as sandy michaels. my birth name reversed.
Mine is from a dead cat.................. long story
I named myself after an ex-fiance who went ballistic when I revealed myself to her. During one heated exchange, I asked her if she had rather I was a rapist or child abuser. She said "yes". My being a crossdresser was absolutely the worst thing I could have been for her. Obviously, we didn't last much longer, but I got my engagement ring back and loved wearing it when I was Paula!
Mine is the month in which I was born and my favorite Poe story.
