I cheated when I chose mine. I wanted to stick with somehting beginning with "R" to match my given name and then did a web search for baby names and looked through all of the Rs. Came across Renee, with a meaning of "reborn" and figured how fitting since I kind of feel reborn when I am CDing.
My first crush was on a very pretty young girl named Kelly. I always thought it was a pretty name.
My mother has told the story a hundred times of how I was supposed to be a girl and since I wasn't, she just gave me the first boy name that popped into her head. (It's an okay name considering the lack of planning.) She'd been planning to have Elizabethamy all along, and 50 years later, I guess she did. But she doesn't know about elizabethamy, nor does my wife, who has been terrific in the few days she's known about my dressing, but who doesn't know that elizabethamy has emerged to the degree that she has....
I picked mine because it has same first letter and is close to my given name.
Steffi
Mines Jazmin, cause i love the name when its shortend "Jaz" :)
I chose *Alexia because when I was overseas, I met the most beautiful Romanian girl I have ever seen. She is my perfect vision for how I want to look when I dress. We shared the same birth month and year, and the day was only off by nine days!!
It was easy for me, I only had to change last letter from w to a. :-) ... and I used to work with a girl whose name was Andrea. Like the way it sounds too.
It was actually my wife who, to my delight, suggested that I should have a feminine name when dressed. She picked the name for me and I love it.
Add to my earlier comment: I'm now finding out that my wife doesn't yet like the idea of this separate persona named elizabethamy. She knows what the name means -- it's from my mother's too-often-repeated story about how i was supposed to be a girl with that name. So I think when the time comes, I will let her rename me, once she realizes that the boy name just won't work when I'm in a dress.
I used to watch Day of our lives and kayla brady was what i wanted to be. so changed the spelling and now im Kaela. Love the name suits me so well
my mum and sister given my female name of samantha. my said the were go to name samantha if i was a girl and not a boy.
I've thought forever on my fem name and haven't come up with anything permanant. JoleeCube was thought up on the spot when joining. At times when I've dated girls that I could open up to, I would let them give me names, I've been called molly, carrie, and christina (it's clostest to my real name) I'll eventually find one I am happy with but for now, call me jolee.
Going to try the name shannon out its my first attempt at picking a name so dont know if I will stick with it but I guess time will tell. I picked shannon because its not to far from my own name (shane) and it also has links with where I was born the shannon is the biggest river in ireland
My female name is McKailah Autumn. At one point in time I used the name Chelynne Grace, but that name didn't seem to fit my personality as much as I would like it to. My wife and ex sister-in-law helped me come up with McKailah Autumn a few years ago, and I love it. The spelling of McKailah was my wife's handy work, since she loves to spell things unlike the ways she has seen them, and Autumn came from an anime that I watched back in high school.
I don't really feel that I have a female persona, but it makes it easier dealing with online stuff. Cassandra was my favorite girl's name, which my wife and I would have used if we had had a daughter, but all I can make are boys, apparently. :p So I figured what the heck! Violet is just because I love the purple end of the spectrum.
My first post! Hi to all those who see this. I am brand new to CDing, but I'll get into that later. The name I love is .. Melody .. because music is a huge part of my life, and since I now have a whole new world open to me, I can have a name that suits my love!
I am same as Melody; this being my first post.
I liked a girl in school named Bethany & thought if i ever had a daughter that name would be top of the list.
Because Bethany was always taken whenever I had to have an on-line name. I had to come up with a unique spelling.
Hence "Befanie" was born & I have grown to like her very much! I did not know I would be "my daughter" lol!!:heehee:
It's nice to hear everyone's stories (:
My name is a combination of a couple of things:
-Kali comes from a GG I once worked with. She was incredibly beautiful, and had the vibe that I wish I could capture in myself.
-Brooke is a name that I've always liked. I wanted a name to go with Kali, and I think it has a nice ring to it. Plus, it's an homage to the beautiful Kelly Brook, another inspirational GG for me.
My name came from my partner. I was blown away by his acceptance, and even more blown away when he came right out with a name for me that we both really like!
I took the first 3 letters of my real first name, and created what I thought was a new name, since most names were already taken.:) After googling I found out it is a real woman's name.
The name Roxxy was given to me on my first trip to Janets Closet here in Michigan. The girl that was helping me with my purchase had given it to me since I had not come up with a name at that point. The wife approved and there has been no thoughts of changing it. Roxxy rocks and the wife adores her, well not as often as I would like but you know what I mean.
Hey all! Like Melody and Bethany, my first childhood crush's surname was Joyce. I've loooved the name ever since! I don't know if it's the joy inside of it, but it just makes me feel happy and optimistic :) The J comes from my own name. This way my nickname can be JJ hehe...
<3
I love the name I chose and its story. Ta�*s it's a greek name, and it means "the one who should be contemplated, admired". The first time the name was recorded in History was from a courtesan from King Alexander's. <3 I think it sounds very cute and I feel it expresses a lot of my femininity.
Named myself Kimberly, came to my mind, because i met one girl with that name ,wich open my eyes and mind. and also i like this name much.
Since I originally posted in August of last year. I have dropped Gabrielle and actually nolonger use it, except maybe as part of a hyphenated middle name. Now I prefer to use Ashley.Quote:
