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
Lucille,
first of all I would like to thank you for being so supportive, beautiful, and just over-all wonderful in the way you are always there to help in any way that you can. I tell my Therapist about you and it never ceases to amaze her.
My name is really quite simple my grandfather used to call me Bobby when I was very little and I can still remember the roundness of tone and love with which he would say it it still gives me such a warm feeling of security and comfort to ‘hear’ him say it I thought that I would use it only feminize it with an ‘ie’. and Anne has always represented a very feminine softness with a loving heart. That is why I chose those names for myself.
Hello Lucille. Maybe I’m not subject to participate, but my name – Dolores – came the first time I went to a transvestite club here in Mexico City, to take some pictures. I was very nervous, thinking about what would happen. When the manager asked me what my girl’s name, the first thing that came up was Dolores (a very common name in the Latino culture and highly appreciated.)
Do not know why I thought that name (it was my subconscious, I guess). I think it was the best choice, because my way into the path of being a transgender woman has not been easy. It was painful (Dolores means pain in Spanish.)
Is only one comment, however I think it was the best name I could find.
Greetings and a big hug.
i am in love with u dolores i want 2 kiss ur lipse. u look sexy. Take care.
I chose Rebecca. It means Maiden of Beauty and Modesty. It was so very feminine sounding and Initials of REA.
Rebecca
Lucille, my name goes back a long, long ways. I tell you this not to win a prize but just to reflect on it myself. I chose it long before I became more open about myself. I wanted a name that contained a part of my old self and totally introduced me as the real person I was. The initials of my name is JAJ so I would create my new name to retain that part of the old me. I chose Jennifer Arnice. Jennifer because it was soft and feminine and Jennie as most will call me seemed to echo even in my own mind. Even now I can hear some one close to me calling me, “Jennie,” and I will smile and answer as the woman that I am. I chose Arnice because of its uniqueness as I have met no one else who carries that name and it reflects my heritage; says where I come from, my ethnic background. In my mind I am and always will be the woman that I am reflected in the name I carry.
I am called most of the time by the name I was given but I am happiest when someone, without thought of any difference calls me Jennie. I hope, some day, that will be the only name I need answer to and no one will enjoy it more.
Hi Lucille, my story is so simple I was given the name Torrey at birth naturally I changed the spelling to Tori, from there its fairly easy to assume where Victoria came from.
Well my male name is Nigel so I just feminised it.
I originally went with one closest to my given name, Felicia or Felicity or the like, but then I had a dream where I was sort of coerced into feminizing myself for a geisha halloween costume and my name in that was Jeanine.
Ever since that moment I knew that I would use that instead. I totally enjoy that name, the way it flows off the tongue and sounds in my ear.
Well I chose mine by mixing a number of factors. Leann is related to my male first name, has the same number of sylables and, not surprisingly, starts with the same first letter. The last name I use is my mother’s maiden name which also has the same first letter as my real name. So I ended up with the same initials. This has been a problem a few times with various forums. I go to type Leann in as a signature in a message and I type L…., my male name. A few times I haven’t caught it and had to quickly edit 🙂
