You just take random names or objects and make a name.

An example from the show:

Mini VanRental

There is no real formula for figuring these things out. In [title of show], the characters text-message each other whenever they stumble upon a combination of words that would make a fun drag-name (ie: Tulita Pepsi)

Some drag names among the New York City scene include: Hedda Lettuce, Millie Shayntrite, Goodie Bagg, Rita-Miranda Rites, Flotilla Debarge, Lypsinka

Not to mention the countless members Butches and Her Royal Highnesses of the Imperrial Court

There is the age-old game of taking your first pet and your street name... but that's your Stripper name. (Mine is Cocoa Montague)

I always went for classy when it was a more serious event, usually Di A Mond.

For funzies it was Mitzi McTitsi or Sassy McBrassy.

If you go buy the pet/street thing, it would be Max North Park :/

I actually read something in the news about New Zealand authorities taking a child from her parents just so they can rename her....

her name was Tulala Dosdahula from Hawaii...

So MY Drag Queen name is... Tulula Dosdahula!

Before [tos[ it was part of the plot of Torch Song Trilogy.

The only one I remember from that is Bertha Venation.

Read that article, too, F!

My first dog: Rusty
My street growing up: Price
Rusty Price=drag queen, stripper, or porn star?
I've been obsessively thinking of new ones all day, like:

Household articles: Celie Posturepedic, Elektra Kullowtlit, Chynette Paperplates

Random: Ivana Martini, Wilma Dreemcumtru

And Robbie texted me Maya Partment...

OK, Anita Cuppatinow.

I want to me known as Ada McMuffin

[dancingthrulife04]

Posted: 7/26/08 at 5:24pm

Ivana Sing

The pet/street name thing for me would be Dixie Crown.

One of my cast-mates right now has a friend who goes by Sheleata Buffet; I find that one pretty funny myself.

Cheers,

Nova Caine

(PalJoey: the other names in Torch Song were Virginia Hamm, Kitty Litter, and Lorretta Dung.)

Since my BWW name is really Susans, I should think of some for me.

Alice Tullyhall - Whitney Biennial - Miss Attribution

Orma Lou Mount - Terri Kloth - Rosa TraLee (If you're Irish)

My boyfriend and I have a friend who goes by the name "Tina Bortion" when he does drag.

Brilliant.
