I don't actually use a feminine name except here in forums. At home my wife just calls me honey so I have no need for alternative names. I never felt comfortable with the idea of choosing another name for myself since it felt like an artificial process, kinda like choosing a name for a character in a book I am writing. I don't relate in the slightest to the name Satrana or any other name.
Since I don't think of myself as an actual woman, it never seemed particularly appropriate either. I really don't change my behavior or attitude when crossdressing, these days I am just mixing and matching clothes and the whole idea of a separate identity just seems weird to contemplate. I am just me, period.
I never thought that separating out my masculine and feminine qualities into two identities was what crossdressing was about. How can I be expressing myself by creating an alter ego? So for myself, Satrana is just a reference for others to use.
