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,

Hi Lucille
My female namewas bestowed on me by the manager of a store I have done a lot of shopping in. It’s a take off my male name and also hers…I never gave it much thought but have kept it to say thanks to her.

i knew from the begining that i need a feminine name to be able to summerize all my femininity or something like that, so day after day and so on i was trying to find a name i went to baby name sights and everything…with no luck. So one day out of the blue i was Iming a friend of mine and he knew about me and i told him i needed a girl name and me and him came up with one…
Little did i know that the one name he came up with was Elizabeth, which actually was my mothers middle name and i was in totally shock and speechless. IT was perfect and i could help but feel giddy and giggle at mself for it, to this day i still love it. I even have a new middle and same last name cause i like my last name its very very unique.
how I chose my name?
I had a very simple, I was born as a Roman, and only adding the letter A to the end of male names, changing name to the female name in the Czech language 🙂
ROMANA
I asked my mom what she would have chosen…
and after considering it for a bit decided that it would just have to do like it would for any other girl out there.
Hi Lucille. I didn’t have a name for a long time, even though I did go out shopping en femme. I had toyed with names that began with “t”, because I could use the same initials as my real name. I liked the name Teri (as in actress Teri Hatcher), but never committed. One day, while shopping at TJ Maxx, the cashier asked me if I wanted to donate a dollar to a children’s hospital. I was taken by surprise, quickly said yes. She then handed me a piece of paper in the shape of the charity’s logo asked me to write my name (they posted all of these in the store). So, I tried not to hesitate, and wrote “Teri”. After that, I guess the name stuck with me.
~Teri
PS -Thank you for all you do
Hi everyone,
My given name is Theodore, pronounced as would be expected. I go by Ted whenever I am in that mode. However, when not Ted, I am Dori, which is a version of Theodore, which Dori pronouces (Tay-a-doray)…shortened to Dori. Nothing more than a version of my given name…sorry.
Dori
Before I was born the parents had two names for me, and “Jeannine” was the girl’s name.
I enjoy having the girl’s name, “Jeannine”.
It was picked for me, I did not choose it.
thank you!
Jeannine
Before I was born, the parents had a boy’s name and a girl’s name for me. When I was young I got teased that “Jeannine” would have been my name if I was born a girl.. I have always thought of myself as Jeannine. It is spelled differently and you do not see that spelling too much. So the name ‘Jeannine’ was picked for me, as I did not choose it!
