Some names feel sweet and innocent, others are classic and elegant, and some carry an exotic or mysterious vibe.

My male name is Peter, I have always been petite, short and wore half-length dark blond hair. This is the name I use and used until I ended up in the Children’s Home and after the nightmarish experiences I had there my escape was into a completely different world. In which I was helped by a younger dominant, affectionate and understanding friend who began to care for me, take care of me, provided security and it was he who first taught me to wear women’s underwear. We were together for 4-5 years until he left, we lost contact. I met a girl with a very dominant character, such a tearful, tomboyish girl named Joasia. A wonderful person, we spent many wonderful moments on the field, on a walk, and during a game of table tennis and at the same time during stolen moments of tenderness with kisses…. It was her name daskie that I stole for myself.
My name Emese Lelle (in English, French “Esmèe”) came from ancient Scythian Hungary. It describes the name of woman, (aka “amazon”), who became pregnant from saint hawk, and her sun was the “first” Scythian Hungarian man.
The translation if my name ( Emese Lelle) to English is “mother and soul”.
I choose this name before my birth, and I was born on the day, which is name day for Emese in Hungarian “calendar”.
I had moved to Dallas, Texas from New Jersey and that is where I came out and that is where I met my first trans woman and had a chosen family. I had a real female best friend and her name was Erika Love ❤️. When I had first started dressing up (i would say as a joke but in my heart it was not a joke) I used to call myself, Erika love just because I love the name and she was my best friend.
Since then I had moved back to New York City and unfortunately two years ago she had an overdose an accidental one and passed away and so for me I’ll never forget her because it’s now my actual new name.
My female name is a contraction of the first names (Rieka and Reinier) and the last names of both my parents. They could not deal with my feelings for lingerie and women’s clothing at a young age. Yet they have been important for who I have become.
I just thought Kimberly was a very pretty name, and would make a good Kimberly
I chose my name because it was the closest sounding name to my birth name and could have been my real name if I was born correctly
J’ai choisi ce prénom parce que j’y sentais une souplesse et une douceur féminine. Ce prénom signifie (très chère); et moi je me sentais très fière de moi dedans, une vraie femme fière de ce qu’elle est. Et c’est devenu mon prénom officiel sur tous les documents administratifs.
My old name, Nicholas, offered a few feminine options, but I never liked being called Nicky, Nicole just reminded me of the old Renault adverts and Nicola Walker was already taken by an amazing actress and didn’t want to invite comparisons. As the beginning of my name wasn’t going to work for me I considered using the end, but Lassie wasn’t ideal, made me feel like a border collie, so I flipped it – Sal. On discovering Sally was Hebrew for princess I knew it was perfect and is now my legal name. x
