Stage Names

Sunday, July 21, 2019 3:11 AM
So I used to work as a dancer in some well known Dallas area clubs at age 18, loved it and was making money. Seven years later I’m going to grad school with shitty clubs and So taking a year off dancing, but I’m currently writing a memoir/doing research about club demographics, etc. My question is: Do you prefer traditional stripper type names such as Diamond, Scarlett, Cristal, Sinnamon, Angel, Princess etc., or more mainstream names such as Nicole, Michelle, Hailey, Katie, Jessica, Natalie etc.? Which is your preference (customers and dancers both), what type of club do you usually visit, etc.)? Thanks for your participation!

    Thinking back over all the years of going to Strip Clubs. Names I remember from years ago are Heather, Barbra Ann and Sandy. More recent dancers I have liked had names like Sage, Victoria, Electra and Denver. I remover fondly some other dancers but not their names. I guess the names are not quite so important. If I were to choose I would like names that sounded like real names.

    I prefer traditional names. Easier to remember. A;though I have also liked a few names that were not traditional but were very original. 2 that come to mind are Pebbles and Poppy.

    As long as a dancer doesn't walk up to me and say something like "Hi, I'm Travis! What's your name?" I'm not at all picky about names.

    For me, the names have not mattered. I think for OTC though, it's been easier if they have a non-stage sounding name like Jenn or Brie vs Emerald or Toy.

    I very strongly prefer mainstream names. I visit mid-level and mainstream clubs Names do have an effect, even if subconsciously, on how you view someone. As my best SC wingman points out, I tend to prefer strippers who come off a bit more princessy (vs ghetto, or ho-ish, or hustle-y, or GPSy, or nymph-y), and the whole effect is a little tougher if I'm calling her Bambi

    Don't care about the name. I'll call them whatever they want me to. I generally go to mid-tier clubs.

    I'm into variety so the name is pretty-much inconsequential - if I like the way she looks and I like the way she gives dances, the name is the least of my concerns

    If someone has a real sounding (mainstream) name I have no interest in knowing their real name. If they have a fake sounding (traditional) stripper name then it drives me a little crazy to keep calling them by that and I usually want to know their real name.

    codemonkey - "As long as a dancer doesn't walk up to me and say something like "Hi, I'm Travis! What's your name?" I'm not at all picky about names." LOL A few dancers pick a name that somewhat reflects their personality - at least for that moment. That thoughtfulness is appreciated. Montana from Ricks in Austin - lived up to her name. No speed limits. Lived wild and in the fast lane. Enigma from Bare in Austin - changed hairstyle, personality and attitude every so often. Always a surprise. Harmony from Divas in Austin - She gives a head massage, shoulder massage during a lapper while straddling on you. Whole body experience. But then there was Pleasure from Palazio. She was pleasure, only barely. When parting she said "It was pleasure doing business with you". I had to say "But it was business having pleasure with you".

    I go to Dive Clubs, Ghetto Clubs, Mid Tier Clubs, College Town Clubs and High End Clubs. I prefer Dive Clubs. I could care less about their names. I will forget them as soon as I walk out. If they give me their phone number (happens about 75% of time), I just put their stage name in, followed by RN and city so that I can quickly pull them up in my phone when in that town. Otherwise, I really don’t care what their name is, real or fake.

    I remember names based on experiences. Only one name stood out because it was so different than what I've heard, and that's Snow Bunny. She was a good experience also.

    Go to dives and mid level high mileage clubs. Couldn't really care less about the name as long as it isn't some goofy name like the girl I went to vip with last month named Google. Obviously it didn't stop me from enjoying myself, but it was odd.

    Names are generally not that important unless they have the name of one of my daughters then I won't get dances with them. Just a little too creepy there. Mid tier and dive clubs.

    rh48hr - I once told a dancer that I couldn't get a dance from her because her name was the same as my daughter's. She said just call me anything you like. I said "how about bitch?" She said" That'll work!"

    From a dancer”a perspective a was way more successful going by Nicole than some of the more typical names. But it goes with my GND persona. I’m not discriminating against anyone’s names but for god sake please stop using diamond as a stage name. It is really unoriginal at this point

    I met a dancer once that was white and her stage name was White Diamond because there was already a black dancer using Diamond.

    A dancer I knew came back after a hiatus and wanted a new name. I suggested Felony. She absolutely loved it. Probably because she had been arrested several times. Another dancer and I were on the subject of names and she liked Alibi.

    I've known a dancer or 2 go by the name of "Trouble" which I thought was dumb since trouble is the last thing I wanna deal with. I assume they think of it as sexy in a bad-girl kinda way.

    As long as the name is sexy I don't really care. Now that said, there have been a few names I heard that didn't seem to work, such as: Olga, Olive, Gertrude, Pearl, Hazel, Henrietta, and Helga. Other times there have been names that work, except when there are several dancers. For instance I have known several Jay's and Kay's, but having a Jay and a Kay in the same club is a bit too much. Same with similar sounding names such as Anaya, Anya, Anaira, Anika, and Anita, all working at the same club. I was interested in Anaya and almost asked for Anaira.

    The name selection has always intrigued me. Sure, we've all run into Angel, Sexy, Sky, Foxy, Kitty, Luscious, Winter, Summer---never Fall or Spring----Nicole, Judy, Sandra, Maria, and Sinnamon. I always prefer when a girl takes time and thought to come up with a name that fits her. Sometimes it's between typical and unusual like Pheonix, Reva, Serene, or Leandra. And if it fits her personality, so much the better. But if it's too obtuse like---I kid you not---Girl#7, you might be hesitant unless she looks so hot she melts everything around her. Bottom line, the name game is fun, but guys remember how the woman looked and if the look matched the experience---provided it was a great experience.

    Don’t care about the name. I visit all kinds of clubs. Just need to be a little more careful visiting certain clubs at night. Lastly, in light of all the 2AMers that have been posted here, I try to leave clubs by 1:00am. Doesn’t always happen and I’ve had some really good times after 2AM, but it’s a guide rule I try to follow.

    I can barely remember people's names in real life. So, all the more, when someone takes the right measures to be remembered, it makes a HUGE impact. I think all guys in SC's (many would never admit it) are looking for a human CONNECTION--even if it's imaginary. But a "pretend human connection" is still...technically...a type of connection. So I think the NAME CAN BE very important to the patron on an emotional level and the Lady on a business level (*I highly respect the business/sales aspect of being a stripper). That said, "traditional stripper names" like Diamond, Sparkles, Delilah, Star etc. are pointless. Not a problem, but it immediately shuts down the possibility of a top-rate connection. An interesting "strategy" I feel I've encountered is the "my stage name is...__Rose__, but you can call me Rachel." When a girl does this, I still don't believe "Rachel" is her real name. And I don't care about knowing her real anyways (unless the friendship has grown and grown over dozens of encounters). Nonetheless, it's not much different than offering someone your "nick-name." The ".... But you can call me ______, everyone does!" This is a very good approach. An overly common name like Ashley may be better than Diamond, but easily forgotten (Though, again, "My name is Ashley, but you can call me Ash" half way through the encounter would make a difference.) Another best approach would be a truly unique name like ... "Orchid" ... that is uncommon can stand out **IF** it comes with an explanation. Explaining one's name is always a great connection. Lastly, sociologically, if a name isn't used regularly it loses its power. So "what's in a name" if it's only said once at the beginning and forgotten 15 seconds later. Conclusion: use a name to connect, not as a mere title. *I prefer only top notch professional beauties and establishments.

    Please no more Mercedes, Passion, Lexus, Diamond, etc. I would also avoid some of the more ancient mainstream names, ie. Gertrude, Ruth, Betsy, Bertha. Express yourself. You seem to be very intelligent, vivacious and educated. A rose by any other name... I think 'Anytime' could be cute, depending on the club. Since you are considering a memoir, make it memorable, so perhaps your loyal custies can recognize you once you are published. Probably have to keep it somewhat reasonable since the other dancers may dislike anything too bold. Have fun with it, you have time to decide while you are finishing your grad work. And tell us the name when you have made a decision.

    A fav dancer of mine was named Malice -- thought that was awesome. Changed it to Max -- not as sexy somehow. Don't prefer girls named after cars. Unless it's really creative like Malice I prefer real names like Jennifer or Annie.

    I knew a dancer years ago named Chantilly. The DJ would play a few bars of Chantilly Lace whenever she was called on stage. One Asian dancer called herself Malaise, probably trying to sound like Malaysia, until she was told what the word malaise meant. Lately I have heard a lot of dancers named Dallas, Diamond, Phoenix, Dakota, Lexus, Cherokee, Asia, Sugar, Princess, Raven, Athena, Serenity and Paris. The name Mercedes I haven't heard much lately. I once mentioned to a dancer named Cherokee that the club has four dancers named after cars here, Mercedes, Lexus, Porsche, and a Jeep Cherokee. She was not amused. A few that I have only heard one or two called lately are Rose, Cinnamon, Melody, Luna, and Bambi all of which were more common a few years ago.

    I'm pretty new to the strip club scene to be honest, but so far I've liked when girls had more normal names. The traditional stripper names just seem so over-the-top, whereas I like sitting and having a chat with a girl who has a normal name. Makes it feel more like it's a normal girl at the bar I've been chatting with that get to see naked, rather than explicitly a stripper, who is just there to make money and is only artificially cordial to me. I know all strippers are there to work, but normal names make them seem less artificial than that (and many of the ones I've met that had more normal names were nice and chill and normal themselves!)

    The names really don't matter to me, but with about 8 years of earnest research the dancers who I remember are Anastasia, Caroline, Aiden, Victoria, Mackenzie, and Valerie Lane. While I don't favor dancers based on their names, it seems more likely that the personable dancers that I tend to like choose more realistic names, preferably about 3 syllables long.

    I don't remember names of dancers. I simply assume its a stage name - and who cares anyway. Its about the money, not whether I actually give a shit that your stage name is cute. The other night - a Russian stripper told me her name - and made sure to tell me its spelled with an N not an M. I didn't care

    Typical stripper or just female names are fine. It really doesn't matter to me. In my anecdotal observation it's the weird and obscure and somewhat masculine names that don't help a stripper's cause. For example here in Portland I've seen dancers with names like Hulk, Atlas, and Max and none of them make me anywhere near interested in going to see them.

    I like “Code Monkey’s” response a lot. Keeping track of dancers stage names has always been a pain in the butt for me since I’ve gotten progressively more and more deaf. I’m only 59yo, but service related experiences took a toll. Now as a coping mechanism I have a couple cute names I use regularly when I meet dancers. I’ll usually start the convo with, “Hi Lust Muffin!” “I’m a horny old man”. Usually makes them laugh and I can follow up raving about how pretty they are, their great stage show, cute costume that drives me crazy or just how fucking hot they are and how i would love to pleasure their girly parts. If they laugh and carry it on I know I’ve got a winner if not I know she’s crabby and to disengage ASAP. Last time I was in a club, I played this game only to have a really cute 19yo stripper sit in my lap, guide my hand to her love nub and cover my arm up with her extra costume part as I fingered her until I had a wet spot on my leg that I’m pretty sure wasn’t pee because she was showing signs of enjoying my antics.

    One thing I have noticed over the years is two named dancers going in and out of vogue. I recall Dancers with names like Chantilly Lace, Sterling Silver, Alexandria Nova, and Dakota Rayne. I typically tend to avoid dancers with two names, because many have been a bit stuck up on themselves, but a few were good.

    For me, if it’s a one time thing, I don’t really care what her name is. If it’s someone i’m seeing frequently, I will usually ask her her real name (and will usually get it). Then, it’s academic.
