Stripper names

Thank you, Holey!

Yes, “Scandal” is a fun name from Alysabeth’s Big List of Stripper Names. [name]Even[/name] though the website no longer exists, the complete list of names is still available through the Internet Archive. If anyone is interested, I can dig out the URL for y’all.

– [name]Nephele[/name]

I don’t mind at all. It is [name]Crystal[/name]. When I was a child I liked my name until I grew up and found out about the stripper association. I actually think it is a fine name, although my personality is such that I think other names suit me better. But I like [name]Nephele[/name]'s way of looking at stripper names–the real low class people are those that put judgements on people based on their SES status or profession.[/quote]

I like [name]Crystal[/name], which (I think) began life as a Scottish boys’ name. It has a mystical side, as well as a pure side – as well as a stripper side.

I think “stripper” is only a facet of a name, and the wonderful thing about names is they have many facets. Any name, it seems to me, can have a “stripper” side – if worn the right way by the right woman. “[name]Bunny[/name]” can be a upper-class spoiled sorority girl as well as she can be a stripper. “[name]Bambi[/name]” can be a protected Mormon as well as she can be a stripper. (Mormons often give their children whimsical, romantic or invented names. I do know a Mormon [name]Bambi[/name].) “[name]Elizabeth[/name]” can be everywoman – or a stripper.

If you can get a copy of the original “Beyond [name]Jennifer[/name] & [name]Jason[/name],” it has a section on the names [name]Sydney[/name] Biddle Barrows, the “Mayflower Madam,” let her employees use. She wouldn’t let them work under “stripper” names – because it was sexier or more representative of her business style to use name like [name]Joanna[/name] or [name]Martha[/name] or [name]Abigail[/name]. In short, she saw these names as better stripper names than [name]Crystal[/name] or [name]Tiffany[/name] or [name]Flame[/name]!

This post amuses me.
sdekywttaeayny, if you please. Thank you, [name]Nephele[/name]!!

[name]Ruby[/name], [name]Scarlet[/name]. They’re really popular now, but I wonder how they’ll be seen in generations.

namegoddess, are you asking me to anagram you a stripper name? :slight_smile: That’s not a topic I would have thought to start for this board, but since you asked… Stripper names tend to be short, so I didn’t use all of the letters you gave me in your scramble. Here you go: [name]Tawny[/name] [name]Skye[/name]. Have fun! :slight_smile:

[name]EDIT[/name]: Using your full scramble, I figure I can also give you a choice of two full stripper names. :slight_smile:

[name]Tawny[/name] [name]Skye[/name] Tayde

Oh, dear, I read this wrong! Haha! I was looking for new anagram posts!
Well, thank you anyway, [name]Nephele[/name]. Sorry about the mix-up. [name]Tawny[/name] [name]Skye[/name] sounds quite appropriately stripper-esque, if I do say so myself.

I did a little research and found some names of actual strippers in my area. Some of them aren’t “stripper material” at all and some are really out there:

[name]Chloe[/name]
[name]Natalie[/name] (my real name, so it seems strange to see it on a stripper)
[name]Sophie[/name]
[name]Diamond[/name]
[name]Electra[/name] (or [name]Elektra[/name], not sure on spelling)
[name]Asia[/name]
[name]Anya[/name]
Passion
Panther (this gets my vote for weirdest one!)

I used to be a dancer. Here are the stripper names I encountered:

[name]Candy[/name]
[name]Bunny[/name]
[name]Brown[/name] [name]Sugar[/name]
[name]Faith[/name]
[name]Genesis[/name]
White Chocolate
Stallion
[name]Jessica[/name]
[name]Honey[/name]
[name]Emily[/name]
[name]Ava[/name]
[name]Mari[/name]
[name]Chanel[/name]
[name]Lucy[/name]
[name]Ashley[/name]
Fetish
[name]Georgia[/name]
[name]Remy[/name]
[name]Mocha[/name]
[name]Cocoa[/name]
[name]Charlie[/name]
Holliwood
[name]Starr[/name]
Platinum
[name]Mystery[/name]
Sex Symbol
[name]Lil[/name] Bit
A.J.
[name]Fancy[/name]
[name]Jada[/name]
[name]Bobbie[/name]

There are more…I’m having a hard time remembering them. The names I put down are from multiple clubs and races/ethnicities. :slight_smile:

[name]Hi[/name], [name]Nephele[/name].

Sorry to intrude on the discussion, but I wanted to let you know that I appreciate the plug, and that after a long, unpleasant hiatus feministstripper.com is back up and running. It got heisted by domain-squatters about 5 years ago when I neglected to renew on time. My own fault, I know, but still I manage to resent it. :cool:

I’ve run across a couple of your posts while researching what’s left of my web-presence. Thanks for remembering.

Sort of on-topic, I think it’s interesting, the derogatory name-categories we use to ridicule or dismiss people, like ‘low-class names’, or ‘stripper names’. I met a woman named [name]Rowena[/name] once and, delighted, commented on the origin of her name, which comes from Ivanhoe. She was surprised that I knew it. Later I related the encounter to someone else, and when I got to the woman’s name the person to whom I was speaking wrinkled up her nose, made a little ‘pfft’ noise and smirked about ‘those silly African-American names - [name]Rowena[/name], [name]Shaniqua[/name]…’. The [name]Rowena[/name] I had met did, in fact, happen to be African-American, but I don’t think that’s what this other person meant. Stereotypes are funny.

Anyway, pardon my interjection; I wouldn’t normally self-promote like this, but you don’t seem to have a way to contact you directly, which I totally understand. I’d love to get in contact with you if you’d like. You can Facebook meor find me on Twitter.

Thanks again.

Alysabeth! It’s good to see you back again as a presence on the interwebs! And that was an excellent point you made about how people are sometimes too quick to dismiss others. Your “[name]Rowena[/name]” story especially made me laugh!

Names that are ‘spiritual’ virtue types because using them is ironic such as [name]Chastity[/name] or [name]Purity[/name].
Names denoting pleasure such as [name]Eden[/name] or [name]Bliss[/name]
Names that are overly sweet/cute, particularly that tend to end with a Y or an I are commonly used as stage names, like [name]Bambi[/name] or [name]Lexi[/name].

And of course any name that was so widely and overly used it just ended up being associated with being low-rent like [name]Tiffany[/name] or [name]Amber[/name].
