Stripper Names and Profit
I literally picked my first dancing name within about 2 seconds. The day I got hired, I was so pumped to make money that I stayed for the whole day shift AND night shift. When I got off the stage after my audition, the house mom said, "Ok, so, did you wanna go by your real name or... what name?" I hadn't even thought of a name! Even though I was thousands of miles away from my hometown and nobody was gonna catch me, I just could not use my real name, so I had to pick something. I blurted out, "Rose!". I think I watched Titanic at home a few days before, so the name must have been lodged in my subconscious. That name suited me. I actually made the most money with that name, but it might have just been because I was new and new girls make more. Soon after, I had been dancing for a while and I got bored with the name and my persona. I wanted to be more mysterious and sensual. It was at that point that I chose to be "Silhouette", and people called me "Silly" for short. I chose that name because I felt that I used to be such a meek person, then I became this whole other person at work. I felt like people were witnessing me bare all so candidly, yet they really weren't looking at the whole me. Hence, my new name. I made decent money as Silhouette, I had really steady customers, and I felt that this name made it easier for me to separate my private life and professional life. I have since changed my name to Chanel, or Lexi Chanel in whole, and my income has tripled. I feel that guys in clubs really prefer girls with cute, ordinary names. It is JUST MY OPINION that whimsical names like Apache, Candy, Passion, Sweety, even "Silhouette" are tacky, and not profitable. There was a girl I worked with named Sandra, who was the most beautiful, exotic girl I had ever seen. Sandra looked like a statue of Nefertiti brought to life, with golden skin, and long brown hair, and cat-like green eyes. She made the most money in the club, and I owe a lot of valuable advice to her. I asked her real name and it was a sexy, Colombian name. I asked her why she didn't go by that name, and she responded matter of factly, "Because its too hard to say, and too easy to forget. Pick a name like "Jenna", "Sascha", "Jessica", or " Tracy" and I promise you will make more money. Better yet, think porn star name and put two simple names together. You have to be a man's fantasy". These names just sound more high-end. A businessman walks into a club, and has money for a champagne room. The bouncer tells him, "I have two women that I really think you should meet. Who would you like me to bring up, Jessica Ann or Lolly Tops?" Which one sounds more approachable, and generalized for multiple admirers?
