Trap Names

Sthaana

Really Experienced
Hello lads, hope everyone's doing well.
I'm working on a new story idea and I need some advice.
It's going to be a trap/femboi story and I need a name for the protagonist. What good, girly names can you think of? It's set some time in the 50s-70s in Britain, so nothing too recent or American.
I was going to go for Victor/Vic/Vicky, but I'm not so sure...
What sort of name is good for a femboi? What sort of name would all you red-blodded not-gays be OK reading about?
Any suggestions?
 
Charlie. Short for Charles, but it can be feminine, and it's old enough.
I honestly can't think of any more. You've got yourself a challenging dilemma indeed.
 
Sam can be a good one, since girls called Samantha often shorten it
Jackie, as a long-standing nickname if is his name is Jack, same with Chrissie for Chris. Both sound feminine but are things a boy could be called

Looking forward to your story anyway! I'm always happy to see other authors writing femboi content on this site!
 
James>Jane
Elliot>Ellis
John>Joan
You could also go directly for a unisex name like Blair or Jessie

If you are going for a transformation/conflicted route you could start from a nickname instead of his actual name, because nicknames are something that others force on you. Let's say he has a normal name like Jack but people start calling him Little Jack (because his father is also called jack, because of his low stature... or his tiny dick if you have such refined tastes) Then people start's calling him directly Little and then Lil'. He doesn't mind at first, it seemed like something inoffensive, but then he get's more and more conflicted. People call him Lil, he wants to be called by his original super macho name.... Eventually that Lil becomes a Lily.

Anyway, I'm sure you will do a great job as always.
 
And you can always make it customizable so readers can pick their personal faves. I also think it's fine to go from any first name to any different name as a sissy. Just what ever sounds sexy to you.
 
Some common-ish or traditional American/English names that can hit the right note:


Sam/Sammy as short for Samuel or Samantha
Chris/Chrissy as short for Christopher and Christine
Jordan as itself is fine
Alex as short for Alexandra or Alexander
Max/Maxy as short for Maxwell/Maximilian or Maxine
Jack/Jackie as itself or short for Jacqueline or uh, John, for whatever reason
Nick/Nicky as short for Nicole or Nicholas
Mike/Mickey as short for Michael or Michaela
Jamie/Jaime as itself or short for James
Vic/Vick/Vicky as short for Victoria/Victor
Sky/Skylar as itself is fairly ambiguous

... That's as many as come to mind at the moment. You can also just make up names or find more unusual names that are fairly ambiguous since they are uncommon.

Edit:

Charlie as short for Charles or Charlene
Morgan is ambiguous
Pat/Patty as short for Patrick or Patricia
Mel as short for Melvin or Melanie
Shawny can be feminized from Sean, as a nickname for Seana
Kyle was once ambiguous, though it's pretty strongly male these days.
Leslie is similar, except has become pretty strongly female instead.

Edit:

Cam/Cammy as short for Cameron, which is itself ambiguous
Dana is ambiguous
Shannon is somewhat ambiguous, leaning female
Nat, as short for Natalie or Nathan
Wendy, feminized from Wendell
Aaron and Erin are phonetically (almost?) identical, for what it's worth, with the former being typically make and the latter female.
Mason is fairly ambiguous
Danny as short for Daniel or Danielle
Blake is ambiguous, leaning a bit male
Ty as short for Tyler, which leans male but is ambiguous.

Bobby could be masculine or feminine...

From the trap perspective I was thinking of the acronym BOB: Battery Operated Boyfriend (an occasionally-used slang term for a vibrator).
 
your initial idea was, in my opinion, the best. taking a very traditionally "male" name and altering it (truncating, extending, or otherwise modifying) into a traditional "female" name allows the narrative changes (especially by the character) to play off of and develop embrace her/his/its/Qs 'assigned gender' as opposed to (or in conjunction with) the 'choice gender'
