It’s amazing how much our names shape our identities. Some names feel like a perfect fit from the start, while others never quite resonate with us.
However, crossdressers and transgender women have the unique opportunity to choose their own feminine names.
Every great MTF name has a story behind it, and I’d love to hear YOURS.
How did you choose your feminine name?
Please tell us your story in the comments below, and if you can, share a photo too. It’s always lovely to put a face to a name!
Love,
Lucille
When I was tending bar about 30 yrs ago in a very small town 1200 people[4 bars] a girl in another bar called me started calling me RaeRae one night. No one noticed. a few days later I asked her why. she said I saw the top of your panties and kind of knew. She never told anyone, but we had a few good times till she drown in a boating accident. In her honor I also like the name.
I choose my name because I have always loved the tv show Bewitched. She was such a lady and still fun.
As I discovered I was Transgender as a result of wanting to dress like one of my characters I created during my writing therapy to cope with depression I adopted the same surname as her.
Early on when discussing things with someone they suggested a gem stone first name would be a good reflection of my personality. As one of my favourite colours to dress in is red I went with Ruby.
My name came from how it describes me. My girlfriend suggested it and I’ve been in love with it ever since. Beibhinn is an Irish name and comes from Bean, which is Irish for Woman, and Fionn, which is Irish for blonde/fair. I am an rish woman with blonde hair. I couldn’t be happier with my name.
Love, Beibhinn
My girlfriend is the one who choose Josie. I tend to like brights colors and animal prints and she instantly thought of the 70’s cartoon.
I got the name Amanda b cause it s a name I ve always liked Nd my last BF loved it. He said it fit me to a tee.:)
I chose the name Jana. I had close friend who was an exotic dancer and was very open mided. She encouraged me and tried help with my desire to be feminine.
I got my name because my old male name was Michael. Now I have brunette shoulder length hair and my breasts are now at a 38c. All I need is the hair removal, Adams apple shave, and srs and I am a full beautiful woman.
My inspiration for being a woman completely is Lucille. I read religiously for a long time and made decisions and steps to become my true self. Thank you Lucille.
Love Michelle
