Default I think I've got it!!!!

I've been mulling over stage names for months, trying to pick out something suitable.... and I think I found it.

Miranda Phoenix

I went through many, many ethnic lists, but I'm thoroughly American, with pale skin, red hair and blue eyes - it's highly unlikely I'll ever be mistaken for a Middle Easterner. *smile* Additionally, I'm more interested (at this very, very early stage) in AmCab, a little Tribal / a little Goth... this name feels right for all of it.

What do you lovely ladies think?

(BTW, as best I can ascertain, it means "most admirable, immortal, dark red one".)

If you like it, thats what matters most. By the way, I made off with part of your signature in another forum, lol. But its "...oooh, shiny!!" at the end.

Glad you're having fun with the quote, Nightdancer!

And yeah, you're right.... I think I was looking more to share my excitement at finally choosing my name than I was other folks' opinions on its fit for me. After all, who knows me better than I do? Thanks!

A.C.

(Adiemus - I've never really watched the show... I thought the blond, Samantha, was the bad girl?)

Edit: On second thought, if there's a smut connection I'm unaware of, I'd love to know - cause that's sure not where I was going with this!

Hey, I'm glad you found something you like! I'm not fond of most BD stage names, but yours is definitely unique and meaningful to you, which is most important. I think it is fun to say, too! *pretends to be an MC announcing you*

I think it's smart to have two names, also...that way you are far less likely to be confused with another dancer.
