Your name is an important part of your feminine identity.
Some names feel sweet and innocent, others are classic and elegant, and some carry an exotic or mysterious vibe.
As a crossdresser or trans woman, you have the unique privilege of choosing your own female name—a name that truly reflects who you are.
For many of you, there’s a special story behind your chosen name.
So, I’d love to know: What’s the meaning behind your feminine name?
Share your name and the story of how you chose it in the comments below.
I can’t wait to hear your story!
Love,
Lucille
My feminine first name, “Regina”, is the Latin word for “queen” and the name of the capital city of the Canadian prarie province of Saskatchewan. My feminine last name “Vowna”, is the Belarus word for “wool”. Taken as a whole, the name “Regina Vowna” is an anagram for “vagina owner”, the ultimate indication of being female. Please accept my apology if you’re offended.
I suppose my name was partly chosen for me. I went with Mummy and my cousins to the Ballet of that name, and boys in my class found out about this, through the sister of one of them. They already knew that I went to classes.
I was so upset at the time that I stopped going to classes: I am now glad that I did, since had I trained once testestrone “kicked in” I would have ended up with male, broad shoulders.
Anyway, I now think it is a very pretty name!
Many years ago I fell in love with the name Barbara. I felt that since my mail name started with a B and I loved the name that it was a fit at my age. I am also felt that it was a more conservative name. When I am in Femme’ which is 90% of the time now I feel very much like Barbara. Thanks for all your emails they are wonderful and always very informitive and encouraging.
Thanks
Barbara
As a male, my name was Michael. I simply changed it to Mikela (little Michael) as I liked that name and once knew a beautiful looking woman called Mikela so it just seemed right for me.
Love,
Mikela

Wow!!! This is an easy one.Johanna is a combination of my first name and also letters from my middle name.I have loved this name for many years(even before i started on my journey) and the decision was just natural.The name has Greek/Latin heritage from the Middle Ages and has German background as well,(meaning God is gracious).The name is quite common through Europe,and to a much lesser extent here in the states.I come from a German background,so it seemed so perfect.
Years ago I asked my Dad and Mother what my name would have been had they discovered that I was a girl. They said my name would have been Katie. That sounded good since I couldn’t think of anything that sounded good that goes with Kenneth. So I took that name and added my middle name thus Katielen.
Lucille,
Do you want my Male name or femme name and do you want my mailing address or email address.
