Your name plays a big part in shaping your feminine identity.
Some names sound sweet and innocent, some are classic and regal, while others exude an exotic and mysterious vibe.
As a crossdresser or trans woman, you have the unique opportunity of choosing your own female name.
If you’re like most of my readers, there’s a story behind your chosen feminine name.
So, in this blog post, I’d love to hear about the special meaning behind your name.
Please leave a comment below, sharing your feminine name and the story of how and why you chose it for yourself.
I’m excited to hear the story!
Love,
Lucille
When I set out to choose my new name I wanted something that would give me separation from my birth name, Christopher, but a family member expressed their desire that I choose a name that began with the same ‘C’ or ‘K’ sound. I chose Kristina to appease her but I go by Tina to give me the separation that I wanted.
For my middle name I chose Anne in memory of my deceased mother, and I took my paternal grandmother’s maiden name as my last name, she was the only grandparent that I knew.
I was named Jerry because it is also my father’s name. Yuck! I love it and it can, be unisex, but I’m haunted by my name ending “Jerry…’the second'”. My mom wanted to name me Jasmine if I had been a girl (we see how things turned out haha…).
I have decided to use the name Brigitte for the sense of sophistication that just seems to come along with it. I am not French, but the language and culture are romantic fantasies of mine.
Hi Lucille,
I got the name Kelly from a friend of mine that was also going through the change of becoming a female. We were just sitting around in his apartment thinking of common names that we liked and when he said that Kelly sounded like a good name for me as a female, I looked in the mirror and said it a few times as I was looking at myself and the more I said it, the more I liked it, so for the last 10 years that is the name that I stayed with and no one knows that its not my real name. It also make me feel more of a female having this name.
P.S
Thank you for your program it has helped me come out of my shell and into the world that I really wonted to be in.
it all started 41 years ago when i was 7 yrs old and one of my neighbors daughters told my mom that she should dress me up as a girl for Halloween (she knew of my desire to be a girl)so she decided to help me along, and all day long (after my mom dressed me as a girl, and made me walk around the neighborhood all day)she called me Jenny in front of everyone and would not call me by anything else. So as a tribute to her trying to show my mom i should have been a girk=l from the start, i kept that name (only changing the last name i used).I then changed my middle name to something more feminine and added the last name of my viking ancestors, so i became Jennifer Marie Hansen.
Sincerely,
jenny
A great picture of you, and a great story!
Hello Lucille,
I picked Brie, it is the first part of my male name Brian. My friends us to cail me Brianne, but I shorten it to Brie. I am like the french cheese, chrust on the outside but soft and femme on the inside.
I chose my name after reading the book “Tender Mercies”. One of the characters was named “Michelle NESTESIS”. to avoid any copyright issues, I changed the spelling to NASTASIS. (pronounced – NA STAY SIS)
My birth name is Jerry because it is also my father’s first name. Yuck! I love my Dad and name, but I want a name of my own. For my feminine name I choose Jasmine, meaning flower. My Mom wanted to name me Jasmine if I had been born a girl ( we see how things turned out haha). However, Jerry can be a unisex name and I’m proud to be me.
