    Smiley How did you choose your stage name?

    This question is posed to any of you -but I'm an escort so I'm posting it here

    I literally scrolled through baby name websites to come up with my name of Emelia Rose...I loved it at first but it's only a month in and I'm wanting to change it already because as much as I adore the name Emelia it just doesn't roll of the tongue so easily and Rose just bugs me for some reason (seems to suit some other girls much better). By bf was honest and said he didn't like the name from day one, haha! I'm new and moving out of state next week so I think I will change it...

    This got me thinking and wondering about ya'll...
    • If you don't mind sharing, what is your stage name?
    • How did you decide on your name?
    • Did it come to you randomly or did you deliberate over it for a while?
    • Have you ever changed names?

    One of them is Khaleesi, I decided on it because Khaleesi is a mega-badass and I wanted to channel her attitude and strength. I didn't really know what I was going to be when I went in that day to try stripping, and I change names all the time because 1) Khaleesi is a pain in the ass to sound out in the club AND I have a lisp so it's even harder, and 2) new names are fun

    I chose all my stage names after girls that were mean to me in middle school.

    My stripper name is Aurora. It's always made me think of the pretty northern lights - the Aurora Borealis. I went with it because the other name I really wanted to use, Serendipity, all my friends told me was stupid lol They said Aurora was prettier, so I went with that.

    My escort name is Sasha. Sasha Gray is one of my idols for how in-control and business-minded she always was while doing porn. I think of her and try to channel that when I'm working, or even when I'm dealing with work creeping into/affecting my personal life.
    Don't try to win over the haters. You are not the Jerk Whisperer.

    Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.

    I don't want to share my stage names, but how I got them:

    -Name that was on my fake I.D. that I used to drink, when I first started stripping at 18. I didn't want to have to remember TWO fake names.
    -My favorite ex-boyfriend's name. I wanted something androgynous.
    -A character's name from a book that had special significance to me.
    -My cousin's name that I had just gotten off the phone with, when all my other names were taken.

    And then, Summer, which was the only stage name that didn't actually come from any place meaningful or funny. It just suited my personality at the time.
    “The irony of commitment is that it's deeply liberating -- in work, in play, in love. The act frees you from the tyranny of your internal critic, from the fear that likes to dress itself up and parade around like rational hesitation. To commit is to remove your head as the barrier to your life.”
    - Anne Morris

    Mine is the long form of my actual name, which means that I'll respond to it with no hesitation. I wanted a last name for escorting because I think it sounds more legit. (YMMV) I used the very common last name of an old boyfriend.

    My first name is one of my actual names....like Taylor, I wanted to be able to respond, and also remember. A bonus I eventually found is that some outcalls require ID or to give a name at the gate, and since the name is on my ID card, I let the guard know I go by xxx on my ID and it doesnt look suspicious, a lot of people go by a middle name.

    For my last name, I put a shit load of time thinking about it. Since Im Caribbean and market myself as such, I wanted an English name. And I ended up choosing the name of one of my fav British comedians.

    I love my name lots!! It rolls off the tounge, sounds sexy but natural and real. So when a guy is making reservations or something or introduces me my name sounds legit, not like an escort name. That was important to me because right from day one I knew I wanted to be a companion in the sense that I went out on dates, traveled, who could play off being a girlfriend etc in social situations and so far so good. I had a gameplan when I chose my name lol

    I am stealing your game plan for myself, hope ya don't mind, lol! I do think it's important to sound legit as an escort, and I'm definitely going to put a lot of thought into my new name!

    I'm a little late to the party, but...

    -If you don't mind sharing, what is your stage name?

    I have a fairly normal sounding stage name. Nothing too fancy or strippery sounding.

    -How did you decide on your name?

    I named myself after a friend who inspired me. She was a strong woman.

    -Did it come to you randomly or did you deliberate over it for a while?

    It didn't take too long for me. I wanted to name myself after a bold person. This was right before I started dancing and I was a shy person and knew it would take a lot of balls. So I thought of someone in my life who is quite ballsy and doesn't give a shit about what anyone thinks of her, and decided to name myself after her.

    Have you ever changed names?
    No. It just kind of stuck. Also guys ask less questions. I don't usually get the "So what's your real name" spiel.

    DAMN IT! I should have done that! Lolllll. I just chose a random and plain/realistic sounding name... one that's common for Asian girls, and made that mine. "Christina Ahn" Well, "Chrissy" for short. Bahahaha. XP

    Dont mind at all! LoL Ive had guys tell me they chose me *because* my name didnt sound like an escort name. I had a guy who booked a couples massage for us, and he had to give a name for me...when he gave them my name he said he was so relieved that he didnt have to say a name that just screamed escort / stripper name But I will say, hearing receptionist call me by my Escort name when I checked in killed me

    Every so often a guy will ask me what my real name is, and Ill tell them that xxx *is* my real name. The thing about telling the truth in an unlikely situation is...no one ever believes you. Cracks me up when a guy gets all upset and is all..fine, dont tell me. LoL
    Don't blink. Don't even blink. Blink and you're dead. Don't turn your back. Don't look away. And don't blink!
