Part One.

"As the slave of Mme. von Dunajew he is to bear the name Gregor, and he is unconditionally to comply with every one of her wishes, and to obey every one of her commands; he is always to be submissive to his mistress, and is to consider her every sign of favour as an extraordinary mercy.” - Leopold von Sacher-Masoch – from “Venus In Furs”.

Self naming might serve a purpose, but what enthrals me even more than becoming what I should be, is becoming what my possessor wants me to be; and I can see a renaming as the first step towards that goal.

Like my own choice I hope her renaming will be the result of careful consideration and that it will be designed to help me focus on how she expects me to evolve.

But beyond the articulation of the name itself is the symbolism of the pronouncement: it's a baptism and a rebirth.

Imagine: a name that says what I might be.

Savour it. Let it roll on the tongue, taste it in the throat; shout, scream it to the sky.

Become it.

for me, re-naming someone is very significant, definitely one of the first steps towards ownership.

Re-naming is one of the most significant stages of a subs 'enrolment' and a major part in the shift towards their enslavement.
I take a considerable time considering a new name for my sub and may use a temporary name for them when I haven't quite got an appropriate one.
Although I will revert to their own given name when they are required to be in vanilla situations.

It's a lovely feeling to give my pet boy his new name - my gift to him, and one he feels very proud of...

Be good! www.missnamio.moonfruit.com
