We were naming our daughter Katherine. The whole stripper convo started when I told him that I hope she never chooses to go by the nn Kat, because I think it looks kind of trashy.
I guess stripper names are subjective, but I think stripper when I hear these names:
Crystal
Destiny
Chastity
Jewel
Ha! Chastity for sure!! The meaning of the word, plus "tity" being part of the name just makes it the ultimate choice....
Kat isn't a stripper name at all, IMO. I really like it, and it's a great alternative to Katie or Kathy with the name Katherine. Kind of spunky and fun.
anything named after a car, spice, fruit, dessert, cartoon character, brand name, or baby animal, (or adult animal really). Any name that is an adjective
My nn is Kat and I can assure you I'm not trashy or an Exotic Dancer (I'm not really sure the two have alot to do with one another though. Kat sounds like a boring stripper name to me. On the other hand I have yet to meet a Katie that isn't BSC. I hope they are out there though...
Word names often get used by strippers. Puritan names tend to have a similar vibe about them now. However, it is not always the case. I know a Mara who is a professional Dominatrix and Exotic Dancer. Any name that can be construed as "dirty" by our culture (and there are a ton of them) could be a "Stripper Name"
If you are concerned about a particular nn you don't want your child to use in the future then I would look at a different name.

I'm not BSC:)
Ill add, most names I've seen in Toddlers and Tiaras.
Then it's a pleasure to meet you!
I agree that most of the names listed here from Toddlers and Tiaras are awful.
LOL my name is Tiffany. I've never been to a strip club! It's okay though I'm a lot older than most you girls here and when I was named it was a seldom heard name at all so I don't blame my mom
When I was in high school a snotty little twat named Sheila asked if my mom wanted me to be a stripper. I asked if her mom wanted her to be a dried up old lady. Lmao. That shut that line of questioning down.
I think any of the common names with Lyn added to the end scream Stripper:
Jaelyn
Brandilyn
Kaylyn
Tamilyn
And food names, animals, and anything with an exi, or exy ending... Roxi, Lexi, Dixie, Trixie, Misty, Missi, Sassy,
Lucky Mom to 5 girls: 09/97, 06/99, 10/02, 11/04, 04/08 & Peanut #6 due in April!

Good list ladies!
I have a prediction for the future. I see Nevaeh becoming a big stripper name. It is destined in my opinion to be a stripper name.
My DH is convinced that if you name a child after a virtue she will be cursed to be a stripper. lol
His examples: Charity, Chastity, Faith, Joy, etc.
Oh the funny things that men say... (although I do agree with him on some)
