I know it’s been awhile since I’ve updated my blog. 🙁 I’ve been juggling projects, but I miss you, darn it!
So I decided to do something fun to celebrate my return to Blogland …
I’ve been thinking about NAMES and how we grow into the names we are given at birth. (I can’t imagine being called anything other than “Lucille”.)
But TG women have the unique advantage of being able to choose their feminine names …
So I’d love to know how you chose YOUR name!
To make this fun, I’ve decided to turn it into a FREE GIVEAWAY!
Leave a comment below telling me your feminine name and how and why you chose this name for yourself. I’m going to put all the names into a hat and choose one winner for a sterling silver necklace personalized with her feminine name! (Just like the one you see above.)
I’ll announce the winner on Tuesday, May 24, so submit your entry by leaving me a comment now!
Love,
Lucille

I chose femme name after , seing a women wearing thigh highs and bodycon minidess with suculant sways walk passed me, she represented in everywat sexy , seduction , control and power of sheer appearance. I always thaught about who she was atracted too , if every uy was as head over heels as me for her . Her name was lyndsey and shes never gone from my curiosity .
I chose Danielle because it is the feminine form of my birth name Daniel. Also, I have been so judged by some people that the meaning of the name: “God is my judge” was very fitting. Those people are not my judge, so who cares what they think! For my middle name, I chose Victoria. Not only do I think it is a beautiful name, but I have struggled with accepting my true gender for 58 years and have finally accepted the fact that I am a woman trapped in a man’s body. I finally have VICTORY over the struggle! I have been full time female for nine months, and on hormones for eight months. Never in all my life have I been so ALIVE inside! There is sunshine in my heart and in my smile for the first time in 58 years!
Hey Girl,
I have always known I was different then other boys growing up. It wasn’t until I was 12 when I knew exactly how I was different then my male friends. My mom brought a bag of clothes home one night and she set them down next to the hall closet, me being a 12 year old I just had to see what all was in this bag. I started pulling clothes out of the bag when i pulled this beauty pink lace bra. I never felt the feeling I had at that moment, I felt almost free for a second, I knew right then I was born the wrong gender, and I wore the wrong clothes. I know this sounds strange, but this bra opened my eyes and from that day I knew just who I was. I hide my feelings from everyone, I didn’t know how my family would react if I told them I was a girl in this male body. It wasn’t until my mid 20s I knew I had to tell someone. At this time I was married with 2 kids, I told my now ex-wife about my feelings and who I should be. She had a hard time at first, but then she started helping me dress as the woman I needed to be. This is when I knew my name could only be “Ashley”. To me, the name Ashley was strong, confident, beautiful. When I was dressed as Ashley I felt complete. I am now engaged to the most perfect woman, she helps me to be who I am. I am now 43, I am starting HRT this month. I am starting my transition to living full time as the woman I have always knew I was. I should have started my transition 25+ years ago. Its never to late, we just need to begin when the time is right to ourselves, no one can tell us when or if we can.
Thank you,
Ashley
I knew at a young age that I was supposed to be a girl. I remember looking through the Christmas catalogs at the girl toys, cloths, play sets. My dad was big into country music and we would listen on the radio. One day a song came on, not sure which one, but it was by Dolly Parton. He said she was beautiful and how every guy he knew agreed. He really put her on a pedestal for looks. So in my mind she was the epitome of femininity. When I finally saw her I agreed with his assessment. When I heard the song Jolene and realized it was fairly close to my name I was ecstatic.
I came out to o e one of my cousins after high school. She was and is still super supportive and has helped me work though alot. I had never picked a feminine name as I was super deep in the closet. After a few weeks of hanging out and having her help me in some of my mannerisms she said she couldn’t call me by my boy name. So we sat and threw names back amd forth. After a while we started hitting female icons, at the time Brittany Spears was huge, and I told her about my pedesatl and who was on it. She immediately said Jolene. I had never thought of it before and realized that it was a great name. Ever since, 14 years ish. I have been Jolene. Don’t worry though I am not trying to take your man. He has to come willingly!!
