advice of girls that have worked under a normal name and then changed to a creative name...which one worked better for you? details...
im starting at a new club tomorrow and im trying to decide between nicole and gypsy...
Nicole. Guys are typically amused or confused by obviously fake names. If you chose Gypsy, you would open yourself to innumerable questions and/or jokes. This will be annoying to you, and distracting to the customer, and could affect your sales. Unless you work in a club where most of the girls don't use "real" names.
it's about half and half. fake and "normal"
danget
i was gonna be betty boobs.
hahahah
nobody steal it!
jkjk
maybe i'll be "rose"
b/c of my vagina
I would go with normal. I tend to think overtly fake names are sort of cheesy.
I've been Gypsy forever and I've been trying to figure out a "normal" name that would go with my look. It's hard! I'm going to have to post a picture on here and have the girls help me out. But Anyhoo, I'm sure being Gypsy has turned off a few guys. Some guys really like it but more guys are like "HAR HAR that's not yer real name OMG!" And it's just freakin' annoying. So yeah, I'd go for normal unless you have that Gypsy look and just really wanna be different. Personally I'm done with the name! I just can't think of a "normal" name. Even my real name isn't normal. Arg!
i had mentioned to a few customers at my old club and they said it really went well with my look (gypsy) but that nicole was pretty too.
I kind of like Gypsy, I used to know a girl that used it though so maybe I'm biased. I agree that you're prolly better with a "real" name so you don't get stupid comments.
I say go with a 'normal' name. My stage name sounds like something my mother could have named me and I'm able to go with the, "yes, this is my real/stage name" thing and it's left alone. I got annoyed with jokes and questions when I danced by Harley (and I really liked that name too :'()
Whatever you pick, just make sure that it's something that's easy to hear over the loud music and easy for drunks to pronounce/remember. You might lose dances just because a customer doesn't know what to call you after you already introduced yourself and he feels embarrassed. This is why I have started favoring "Jackie" over "Scarlet" (what? Charlotte? Star? Starlette?) when I work these days.
Also, watch out for double meanings. I work with a "Siren" who is willowy and sylph-like - obviously going for the Greek myth reference. However, the unwashed masses get confused. "Huh? Like a tornado siren?"
