Your Female Name

Hi my name is Susanne and it has always been my name since I started CD some 50 years ago, and I am just now getting to know her!

Up until the last few days I didn't really have a name for my female self. I'd been using Bobby/Bobbie as a place holder until I found one as I use Bob as a Pseudonym when posting on sites as a male.

That said I was reading a novel earlier this week and the Heroines name and character really stood out to me so from now on my female self is Maxine.

I have been Suzanne, when dressed up, since I was in my late teens. I used to have a very dear female friend who knew of my secret. We used to spend hours together, her dressing me up. We loved each other's company, we were good friends and she gave me her middle name, Suzanne. When she moved away with her parents, I kept the name. Never saw or heard from her again, she was so sweet, never once ridiculed me. It was the nearest I ever got to going out as Suzanne too. Something I have no interest in at all now.

Well, my Mom wanted to name me Ginny Beth if I was a girl, and I kinda like that, but I have used Brandi on a few systems and I used it when I did some stage shows (FI) in the 90s. So here I am. I actually still have an account here with that name, but I lost the password and started this account because I was too lazy to go through the hassle of password resets and all. So.... here I am as Brandii

I originally chose Bridget Gilbert because it contained the starting phonics of my legal name. I wanted to be sure that I or my friends could catch ourselves if asked unexpectedly. I've changed my last name a few times. First was Monet, but I discovered there was a porn star by that particular combination. Ick! I tried MacPhearson in honor of my Scottish heritage, but these days it just feels right to go back to being Ms.Gilbert. The middle name is a recent addition. I was unexpectedly asked for one when registering for another web site, and Ann had just the right ring.

UPDATE: I recently discovered my femme name has the same meaning in Celtic as my male name. I guess this means I am the same person no matter which gender I express.

mmmm i liked remi and this what my name become

My born name is Lucas, which, means "Bringer of Light" and is Latin. Very fitting if I say so myself and most people, if asked, would tell you that I am a very kind and loving person.

I think my female name would be Lucy, as it also means "Bringer of Light" and is Latin.

Funny, now that I think of it, even under my birth assigned sex as male I look like a "Lucy".

Well, in my case, I always liked the name Eve, also for me means a rebirth, as someone I want to be. The line of (eveline), is just because I feel more complete with Eveline than just Eve.

Hello girls! First time here! Not sure where "Sylvia" came from but it's fitting I think!! (: and I love clothes, shoes and fashion(who doesn't hehe) so "Styles" makes sense too!! I love being Sylvia (:

Hi, I chose Alice because I love the Alice stories and this journey feels a bit like falling down the rabbit hole. The name really resonates with me too somehow. Still trying to learn more about Alice and to let her have her space. :)

I call myself Savannah because I once had a girlfriend named Savannah and she was the first girl (besides my mom) that I told about my crossdressing, and also I love the name.

well we where on a family vacation, I was 4 or 5 and we stopped for breakfast. I was mad about something and the waiter was asking me what my name was. I didn't reply so he said is your name suzzi? well the name stuck so that's the story!

I choose my name I like the name elisabeth. And for cherrish I saw it on a plak about grandparents and it stuck

Hello everyone! Brand new here (and fairly new CD....except back in my teens). I am still working on my name. I am hoping that something will just hit me and I will know that it's right. Stay tuned!

Haven't really got a female name.... Though many have said my real name suit me, I guess I can see that lol "Jesse" is a boys and girls name minus the "I" I do like my name though, my full names Jesse James, had dad got his way I would of been a Simon lol glad mum got in there first

In choosing my fem name, I looked for a public figure who exhibited many of the traits that I aspire to. When I first read about Carly Fiorina(sp?), she was the CEO of Hewlett Packard. She was pretty, smart, a leader, and willing to take on new challenges. I also liked the name, "Carly", because it just felt right.

Hi everyone! I used to watch a show with a character called Lady Jane. She was a strong woman and I always loved her and the name - when I accepted the love of cross dressing I wanted her name to be mine.

- Jane

I picked my first name forty or so years ago and don't remember why but I really think it fits me. When preparing for my name and gender change I decided to change my last name too as it would leave one less reminder of my former identity. Search the web for popular last names and contemplated several last names and asked did they fit well with Karen but nothing suited me. Then a memory came back from a comment a student (I teach empty hand self-defense) said, "he is a giver of pain", that rolled into Payne.

Over the months following my name change I received several compliments which made me happy in that I made a good choice for both first and last names. I did have a middle name and decided to not have one for my new identity.

My name was easy for me. I am the fourth by name. Just add a y and Ivy is born.

I chose Ilianna because it's my favorite girl name. Mainly because I've met a lot of ultra sweet Iliannas in my days and I've never heard of a crossdresser with that name. It's very sexy sounding imo.

Im a mature (?) punk rocker who loves the Ramones....EZ nuff

Well, when I first started exploring my dressing fully (was in a long term relationship that prevented it until I was 31), I decided to go blonde rather than brunette (more fun right girls??) at the time I knew two abigails. One was extremely fake in everything she did, the other was the very stereotype of a blonde. Very sweet girl and very accepting of her own limited view of the world.. and I figured blonde one one hand.. fake on the other.. Abigail just seemed to fit (though most people just call me Abi).

The Jordan part was added after the death of my favourite author Robert Jordan as a continual memorial to his work.

Hi everyone, new on here, with my name it was a fairly easy choice, I have always liked the name Becky, and also admired a local radio presenter

Roberta just seemed a natural, as I was christened Robert A.

I generally go by two, this one here is my second preference, my top choices is Krista Jai, Krista from a girl I had a huge crush on, otherwise Kristen Jai :)
