    Default Should I Change My Stage Name?

    As some of you know I'm going on a small strip club tour and I was wondering if I should switch up the stage names a little since I won't be staying at any one club too long. Shayden has always been my favorite and will probably be my permenent stage name but I've always wanted to play around a little bit.

    I'll post another picture of me so ya'll can get a good idea of my body and how I look?

    What name would suit me? I've always liked Elexis. But I kinda wanted to go with something a little bit less common.

    Any suggestions, ideas?

    As Dancerwealth suggests, pick a stage name that can be a real name, like Brooke, Erin, Pamela, or Rebecca. Tell them that it IS your real name. It helps to build rapport with the customers, which is the first step to closing the deal.

    Of course I'm one to talk. My stage name is Avalon. If I could change it I would, but I've used it at the same club for almost 3 years now. I always end up telling them my real name anyway, so I don't think it matters.

    What about Shea? That might fit you I think its pretty.
    I think when I go back Ill pick a more of a naturally fitting name.

    Try to stick with something you can remember too.

    Hmmm... you look like a Carmen to me. Or maybe a Sheila.

    When I look at your pics, I think "exotic" like Pershia, or maybe Gabriella. Or Ameena or Lourdes. Something different.

    I think Alona (ah-Lawn-a) would be great for you. It is different yet very pretty.

    Thanks for remembering me Britney. Actually, to add to what you said, a good idea is to not only use a stage name that could pass for a real name, but also to downplay it a bit also. For example, if you use the stage name "Brooke", and someone asks you what your real name is, you can reply with something like this, "Well, Brooke is my real name....well, sorta. Brooke is actually my middle name but that's just what I go by so I use it as my stage name." It's easy, it's believable, and it also gets off the topic quickly without being sarcastic in a reply or seem like you are lying about it. Everyone wins.

    I'm reminded of a time though when I met a dancer who was having this challenge. She had a stage name of Cindi if memory serves correctly and everyone asked her what her real name was. When she told them NOBODY believed her because her real name actually was Sapphire. Her mother was a dancer back in the 60's and smoked a little too much pot when they named her. Can you imagine how difficult it would be for a dancer to convince a guy in a gentlemens club that your real name was Sapphire? Too funny.

    Definately pick a stage name that is an actual commonly used female name. And stick with it unless you work at a club where someone else has the same name and then again stick to a real name.
