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
P.S. Comments posted by Midnight Pacific Time on Monday, May 23 are elibible for the giveaway. The giveaway is open to worldwide entries. The necklace will be shipped by June 7, 2011. If you are located outside the U.S., you will be responsible for any customs or duty fees charge by your country.
When I first started dressing up regularly (age 10) a girl my age down the road befriended me. After she had seen me take a little pink.dress of neighbors clothes line. She came.right.out and told me.she knew.what I was doing, but wasn’t gonna tell Noone. Instead she made me be her best (girl) friend. As I sat in a pair of blue cotton panties thinking about my situation she asked, what’s ur name? Steve I said. She laughed I mean when your a girl.
I told her I didn’t have one and she said I had to. So we thought it over and because it was closest to Steve we picked Stephanie. After she called me by my femme name for the first time she leaned over and kissed me deeply on the mouth. Was my first and she became my best friend in the world.
I love this story.
Well… the strange is that I DID NOT choose my female name… I was chosen by the name.
First of all, I’ve never thought of a female name until I reached the age of 30 (and almost 20 of crossdressing). “Angela” is strictly related to my real male name: the name of a famous architect / sculptor / painter of the italian Renaissance, with a bad temper and a punched nose. Have you spotted him? 😉
The name Angela also referred to the ambiguity of angels’ sex.
Years later I decided to call myself “Ingrid”. Why? Because I have always actracted by nordic female beauty, and the name Ingrid has always actracted me.
It was also a name that somehow managed to keep men far away: too cold, too ‘distant’… and the group of letters “NGR”, with the R staying on forefront, too hard for italian tastes.
Anyway, in the third millenium I decided to use both names, and it worked very well! 🙂
One evening (3rd of December to be exact) about a year of only wearing panties, thongs with the occasional stockings and skirts, we looked at each other and decided that it is time to give my feminine persona an identity. The idea was exciting and she dove right into name idea websites! About 4 hours later, from a 10 name shortlist, Jade Amber was born and moved so quickly through puberty, that two weeks later, she lost her virginity for the first time while being encouraged and motivated by my wife LOL
