i chose Pearl because i have loved "a girl who sang the blues", Janis, since i was a teenager. it seems like only yesterday to me, though you might not share my opinion if i told you i went to see her in concert.

I picked the name Janet because I LOVE Janet Jackson and everything about her!
Originally I called myself Kimberly, but I switched to Vanessa because I thought it was a prettier name. Then a year later when I was shopping en femme a sales associate at White House Black Market asked me what my name was. It was the first time someone asked female me my name and I said Kimberly. Since then I've always introduced myself in person as Kimberly.
Me and my gf sat down and said I needed a name, so we went through a few womanly names and we picked Cindy as we thought is was a good name for a "naughty" girl![]()
Well I (obviously) picked out the name Betty for myself... Okay! Here's my confession! You ever see that movie Kung Pow: Enter the Fist? Well in that movie, the bad guy is named Betty... "From this point forward, you will all refer to me by the name of Betty! Nyahahahaa!"
After my first crush at 5 (Sandra) and Cassandra Peterson (Elvira). Plus it's just a sexy name.
I picked my female name after a great love of my life. Turns out to be androgenous .........Teri. Thats is now me.
Teri Ray Rural Idaho Girl.
Normally when I'm crossdressing, since it's more about being an in-between kind of genderqueer expression for me rather than a straight cross-over into the opposite female side of the binary, I'll just stay by my day to day name of Aerick... and yet... that being said... on the few occasions where I give myself a female name, I actually have the benefit of having seen both sets of names my parents chose for me written inside a baby name book before I was born. In that case... my name, had I been born female, would have been Heather.
Jen, Jenni first name I thought of when asked :-) Otherwise I would go with something like Tika Majerie :-D
My female name Renee Nicole comes from, as many of the posts I read, girls that they know/have known along their journey through life.... But coincidentally Renee is the name of two women whom I currently know (no relationships other than buisness/school) and Nicole comes from two women I previously knew (both ex-gf's). All four of these women are at the top of the list of hottest females on the planet. I squished em together and there you go.
I've gone by Samantha for a long time...not sure why, but my male name doesn't translate to female so I adopted it.![]()
I came up with the name Kat while I was dressed one time. I think I am identifying my feminine said more to that name.
I think I feel more like Natalie than I do Kat. I think from this point I will go by Natalie.
Part of a recently ended relationship where a reason why it ended was my crossdressing.
Because I’ve always tried to suppress my femininity, I only briefly thought about getting a girl’s name. But, about 3 months ago I decided to stop fighting myself and fully embrace my femininity. Because I didn’t want to “out” myself, I thought I better pick a name that closely sounds like my male name. That way, if I slip and say my male name, I could quickly recover. A web search showed Anne and I instantly thought of Anne Frank. I remembered reading The Diary of Anne Frank as a child and the admiration I had for her. Anne it is.
About a month after joining this forum, a friend said, “Anne, you really live up to your name.” Wait, I don’t even know what Anne means. How can I be living up to something without knowing the meaning? But, before I tell you what Anne means, you should know a little more about me.
I’m a devoted Christian. And, I always thought my feminine desires were “sinful”. Thus, when this desire became so overwhelming after nearly 1 ½ years of crossdressing abstinence, I thought God had abandoned me to the wiles of my “sin”. My faith and relationship with God waned. Yet, I felt emotionally stronger and more complete as a whole person. But, how could this be if I’m living in “sin”? I tried not to worry about it and just enjoy the moment. A few weeks later, I start to pray and hear God’s voice again. How can I be hearing God’s voice when I’ve “chosen” to live this lifestyle?
About this time is when I decided to look up Anne. I couldn’t believe what I learned. Anne means God’s grace. That was a total confirmation. God had not abandoned me. My own judgment and condemnation is what separated me from Him. So, after 47 years of living in confusion and self-condemnation, I finally know who I am. I am Anne Blake, God’s transgendered child, Living and Loving in His Grace.
Living and Loving in God's Grace,
Anne
My best girl friends name is Tina and the numbers are lucky.
I picked the name "Amber" after a friend who I adored.
I first called myself Stephanie and later changed it to Stevie. I'm a huge Stevie Nicks fan
Well I choose the name "Aelita" because it is uncommon, I doubt that there are many people in the world that have it (there is at least one person with a name that has the same spelling*). I actually went through several names before this one. There was "Ginevra", "Clarissa", "Caterina", "Victoria", "Ashley", "Evelyn", "Whitney", and "Annabel". For a while I used all of them except Annabel interchangeably. Then I decided on (and used) Annabel for a while. But I thought about it a bit more and realized that I wanted something different (and probably unique) so I chose "Aelita".
* I say "spelling" because I am not sure on the pronunciation of that person's name whereas I know the pronunciation of the name that I chose.
