I have been advised by alot of people in this industry to have a stage or pinup girl name, and I am looking for ideas. A good friend of mine told me "Something peppy and chipper and maybe dessert-related. It seems pinup specialists have names which are puns or desserts. Dita Von Teese ("tease"), Viva Van Story (Long live storytelling photography), I know a couple named Candie Rocket and Rachel Von Cupcake. I guess those names also seem to have that 1940s-50's ring to them-- I'd stick with either the alliteration with Von, Van, or maybe Mc or O' in the middle, or the Adjective Noun setup. " Anyone else have any advice or ideas on how to go about doing this? It sounds easy, but I have been racking my brain for the last 3 days over this...

I kept being told to stick to a certain format, and I was worried that I'd pick a name that wasn't me, and be stuck hearing it all the time... I am REALLY glad that isn't the case!!!
