I started doing this years ago. When a stripper comes up to me and asks me my name I just say "Mike". Not my real name. Some reasons are I don't like my real name, it is easier to say Mike(especially with loud music), and I figured if it was good enough for them it's good enough for me.
Some even ask me if it's my real name or will say I'm the fourth Mike in a hour. Then I will joke how it's not my real name and they will laugh and of course not really give a shit. Some will ask if it's my real name.
Sometimes it can be awkward. I knew one stripper at one club from years back. She stopped stripping and became a waitress at another club down the street. So whenever she see's me she says "Hello Mike". After all these years I don't want to tell her the truth.
If I exchange numbers with someone I have to then come clean about my name but they don't care and most end up blowing me off anyway.
On this name topic I've also noticed an uptick in strippers telling me their stripper name and then their real name. Of course maybe their "real name" is their second stripper name they use to try and make me feel special. I'm gonna start asking for IDs(lol).
We should all agree on a very unique made up name we will use at whatever club we go to throughout the World and it will freak strippers out when they keep meeting "Dellroy's" or something. <g>

I use my real name but it may as well be Mike. Very common and generic.
There was a thread about this not to long ago, and despite a couple explanations, I still don't get why customers would use a fake name.
Joking aside, I just use my real name. As long as you avoid using last names (and your first name isn't too distinctive) there is little or no danger.
Of course, if you dig being called Tony Stark or something like that, go for it!
I've thought about using a different name just for kicks but have been wondering what would happen when dancers keep calling me different names. Many dancers seem to remember me like forever.
One time when a dancer asked my name and told her xyz, and she said the last 4 guys were all David, I should have said, I was joking or fibbing, my real name is David too. I only use xyz to stop lunatic dancers from tracking me down. Would she believe me? I wonder if I could say it without smiling?
Amen. Couldn't agree more. That's all it is
The only people in the entire world who call be by my given first name are my 98 year old mother and my Swedish cousins. They are also the only people that I know who can properly pronounce my given name. I am even 'art' to my sister and brothers, none of whom can pronounce my Swedish first name. In fact, to my knowledge the only places where my real name appears are on my birth certificate and on my passport. 'Arthur' is my middle name. Anybody who dares to call me 'Arthur' receives a withering glare.
I'll often banter with strippers about stage names. On occasion, I'll ask a stripper if they'd like to recommend a "stage" or alias name for me. One time we were discussing car themed names (Lexus, Mercedes are such common stripper names) and the stripper suggested that I should be named Ram. i took that as a compliment given our recent trip to the VIP. Im just glad that she didn't suggest Prius for my alias.
You look like a real big Peter & that's a good thing.
I would have guessed Dick. You look like a real dick.
Oh no. I've met a lot of peters and they're all different.
Oh, I like peters.
You must be Peter the Great
peter - That's a real mouthful.
Probably the best named Peter was Peter O'Toole.
Aside from just the equality and why-the-fuck-not factors above, as a few of us stated in the old thread, there's a more practical reason, and I started a fake-name-only policy when I realized my gf and I partied at the same clubs as some of the strippers I knew, often missing packs of drunken strippers by just an hour or two.
Unlikely to happen; but if a dancer and one’s S.O. ever crossed paths; one can deny knowing the dancer by saying “she doesn’t even know my name – she must have me confused w/ someone else or …â€
But I never do that anymore. I just give my real name - Why not?
