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
Angela, because I try to be as sweet as an angel, except for when I’m doing all the stuff that’s not! 🙂
Hi Lucille,
I picked Tina for my first because I have always thought it was a sexy name. I picked Love as my last name because of a couple of very sexy twin sisters from high school. I wanted to be their sister. So I picked Tina Love.
This was an easy one! See my grandmother always called me by my birth name, Daniele, only i didn’t understand the real pronunciation as a kid. i had done all the normal things, filling in paper work as my understood name, and not my birth name. my grand mother was Cherokee. my birth name was Daniele.
(danny-yel-a). I had filled out my name all my life as Daniel E, not knowing that the E was part of my first name, now the middle name was Edward for a great uncle on my Dads side of the family.
Also a family niche my parents had was all D’s in the family since his was Donald and her’s Doris. my older sister was Diana, turns out they where expecting another girl but i came out male with the xy to boot so i struggled all the years growing up with my gender. not until i had to produce my real birth certificate to keep an endorsement on my driving license did i get it. when i came out to my parents, My Mom said she had an idea all along but never nurtured it she didn’t know how, i was 47 before i had heard the term
transgender.Well the rest is history and from that time on so was Daniel. So here i am living it up as Daniele!and thats who i was meant to be! and thats the name i kept.! in the Indian tongue it has three syllables and everyone thinks it sounds French. I opens a lot of doors but so have i since that day of 47.
I choose Kathleen, as a feminization of my male name and my Mother’s maiden name
When I chose my name I was thinking a lot about the gender spectrum and the terms feminine, masculine, and transgendered. In Chinese philosophy the blending and balancing of opposites – the Yin, the feminine half, and the Yang, the masculine half, influence a person’s behavior and fate. I was going to choose Yin, (the feminine, negative, dark, passive, cold, and wet), for a last name. However, these characteristics do not reflect my personality. Instead I chose Yang, (the masculine positive, bright, active, dry, and hot) for a last name. These characteristics better reflect my personality.
I think my Yin and Yang halves are well balanced, but have been shifting to the feminine side over the last year or so. My closet certainly reflects the shift. Life is too short. If my feminine side makes me happy, I hope I am wise enough to balance my Yin and Yang along with my wife and sons’ Yin’s and Yang’s. Sophie means wisdom and wisdom is what I seek.
Ergo, Sophie Yang was born.
I wanted to be an All-American girl next door, and so picked Debra. I added Lynn as a middle name because it sounded natural together.
My name is partially a feminization of my male name and partially a tribute to a departed friend who was one of the first men to know about and be accepting of me. He passed on from pancreatic cancer several years ago, sadly. My friends love that I can have several different nicknames (Missy, Melly, Mel, Lissa, and Lynn are all ones I’ve answered to).
Hugz!
Mellissalynn
I was given my name by my stepmom who helped me dress for a school event. She said i made a pretty little missy. She was unaware of our MPD at the time but we all Liked Malissa, and Dawn is a feminization of our given first name. Madison is our birth middle name
