    Name help PLEASE! This is serious! I am desperate!....or not, can't make up my mind

    HELP!
    I need the collective creativity of everyone. You see, I have a problem with names. Not the remembering kind, mind you. The creating kind. As in I struggle to come up with a name for anything new.

    I bought a boat once. We used it for YEARS before we finally decided on a name. Yup, bare fiberglass stern for all to see. Probably should have called it “Nameless” and been done with it. Or maybe BAREBUTT. I am hopeless.

    Even worse, I couldn’t come up with a name for our kid. I knew I had a problem when I sent him in to kindergarten and called out: “Bye bye Hey You!”

    So here I am putting together a mini convention in Grand Rapids for spring and all I can come up with is “Spring Fling”, sad to say. I could call it “Crossdresser-out-Enfemme-all-weekend-formal-dance-fashion show-shop-till-ya-drop-museum-tour-sculpture-garden-tour” but that is kind of long winded. Sort of like “Dancing with wolves” could have been called “Better than The Postman”. There I go again. Can’t get it right!

    So girls HELP ME! What can I call a Crossdresser mini convention that is all about fun, getting OUT, modest cost, and being Enfemme all weekend? How can I incorporate all that and the other bazillion word name? Probably should keep it shorter? Maybe Grand Rapids OUT. Or shortened to GROUT. Some Men Out as Girls, shortens to SMOG. Crossdressers Out Weekend, shortens to ………… No maybe not. I am hopeless!

    HELP!!!!!

    PLEASE suggest some names!
    Suggestions PLEASE!!!!!

    I don't know, is "Grand Event for Spring 2014" already taken?
    Grand as in Grand Rapids, and a name that is ambiguous enough that it doesn't embarrass anyone.

    I do know that I wish I lived on the other side of the state.

    Best wishes

    When my Dad joined the Army in 1942 at the age of 26, and had to show them his birth certificate, he was surprised to learn that he was, officially, "Baby Boy Smith." His parents hadn't been able to agree on a name and that's what they wrote down when filing the paperwork. (They did name him a few weeks later and so he had an identity growing up, but the birth certificate had never been fixed, and his dog tags read "B B Smith" throughout his service.)

    Great idea, Billie. Maybe Crossdressers Weekend Out? But I also like GROUT--or maybe latex GROUT.
    I have to be thoughtful about my home situation. I hope I can be there.

    heh..It's fun to play with acronyms..
    So I got caught up thinking of the ol' Pink Fog effect...

    Then thought of

    CDers

    Femme
    Or
    Grand &
    Girl-
    Y

    Weekend/Break/Outing/Event

    ..if this were the mountains could come up with a FOGGY Mountain Breakdown
    (Sorry, lame joke )

    F could be Femme,Fashionable,or the Fab mentioned...
    though both Fab and Grand seems a bit much/redundant.

    And I don't know about the ties/interaction with the Dunes stuff...
    So O could be Other instead.

    So CDers' Femme Or Grand & GirlY Event/Weekend/Break

    Okay..probably stretching it a bit.

    That prom might then be considered

    CDers'

    Prance
    Into
    New
    Kinds

    For
    'Other'
    Girls

    Prom

    Yeah I'm getting a bit silly here.

    The Drab to Fab Weekend is pretty short and simple.

    First of all, darlin', I love your sense of humor. What a great post.

    Second, I vote for Drab to Fab 2014. Good luck.

    I have had a great laugh with some of these posts! I hope they keep coming.

    This event is going to happen. It is going to be a LOT of fun. It will be anywhere from one event to a four day weekend. Attend as much or as little as you like. But it wil be efemme and expressly for CDers, their SOs, and friends. There will be activities to fill each and every day, noon to midnight. So if you ever wanted to get to a CDer event and have a weekend enfemme, and are on a budget, this will be inexpensive and FUN!

    BUT I STILL NEED A GOOD NAME!!!!

    So please keep em comming

    If at first you don't succeed, Then Skydiving isn't for you.

    Be careful what you wish for, Once you ring a bell , you just can't Un-Ring it !! !!
