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

I was given the name “Krystol” by my sister when I was just a small gurl…4 or 5. It is basically my birth name reversed…Ray Krystol became Krystol Rahe. We lived in a pretty isolated are so playmates were rare…I was it. She taught me everything from makeup to grace.
We had moved just prior to my entering Jr. High, so when I was registered my name officially became Krystol. Everything else just fell into place…I was truly blessed.
I love talking about my girly self. I chose the name Gerie for my girly persona because it’s meaning is the same as my manly name yet it depicts the most intimate side of my inner being. If you take the name Gerie Lin and turn it around, (such as I’ve done with my life as a man), it becomes Lin Gerie or lingerie! Which is what truly turned my life around. The discovery of lingerie early in my life and the intimacy and secrecy involved, the sensual feel against my skin uncovered a side of myself that macho man Gary feels he must suppress in order to fit the mold of modern society. If more men would come to terms and accept their feminine side then life on our planet would take a surprising turn for the better. Chix rule and guys drool!
Thanx Lucille
I am grateful that you have asked us why we chose our names. I see that many of us have well thought reasons for our names, as important as the names we give our children. So do I.
Lisa was the kindest and sweetest bright woman I ever knew, and I took her name for my first name to remind me to temper my smarts with kindness and sweetness.
Marie is my mother’s first name and my oldest daughter’s middle name, and I chose it for my middle name to honor my mother. Also, I have many of my mother’s features and even sound like her, and since I am from her it is fitting that her first name is my second name.
Kelly is also an aspirational choice for my last name. Kelly is the last name of a woman of my mother’s generation who, like my mother, was born and raised in Philadelphia, PA, and whom my mother admired, and whom I think is the classiest woman to live, Grace Kelly, Princess of Moanco.
Thank you for allowing us to share our reasons for taking the names we have.
Lisa Marie Kelly

Hi Lucille! I finally arrived at Marian, after experimenting with a few different ones. My maternal grandmother’s name was Mary, and I wanted something close to that, and always liked the name Marian.
Good morning, Lucille. Debbie is short for Debra which is what my mother told me years ago that she would have named me had I been born female. In fact, she would have named me Debra Anne which matches my male initials. Have a wonderful day.
My female name came about when I was in 7th grade. I’d been dressing up for a couple years prior to that. While at my aunt’s house over a weekend I stumbled upon a copy of the “National Enquirer” tabloid she always read. In that issue was a story about a transsexual, which fascinated me because I was pretty sure that was why I dressed up.
The trans-woman’s name was “Suzanne Jeanette Fontaine” which seemed so elegant & feminine. At some point I adopted her name but I didn’t like the “Suzanne” so I dropped that name, and used “Jeanette” as my first name and “Fontaine” as my last. I needed a middle name and there was a girl I went to school with named Liz, so I chose “Elizabeth” as my middle name, and I was then “Jeanette Elizabeth Fontaine”.
Here’s the eery part… And I SWEAR to you this was completely accidental!! My female name’s initials are “J.E.F.” and I realized later they spell my male birth name “Jeff”. Too weird…
I love my girl name because to me, it feels so elegant and feminine. On one of my credit card accounts, I have a “second card holder” with the name “Jeanette E. Fontaine” on it. I pass very well and when I go shopping, it’s sooo cool to use that card and see “my” name on the receipt and sign it with my female signature!!! Highly recommended for the rest of you girls out there!!
Peace,
Jeanette Fontaine
