Submissive Names for Males and Females You Have Not Heard Of
The BDSM lifestyle allows you to elevate your ordinary life and immerse yourself in your wildest, most passionate desires. Part of this lifestyle includes how you relate to your partner and the dynamic you share. This also includes what names you call each other.
If you have a defined Dom-Sub relationship and are looking for some fun submissive names, this article can help get you started.
Submissive Names For Males And Females
A BDSM relationship is a delicate play of kink, fetish, whips, roleplay, and yes, care, too. And an integral part of a Dom-Sub relationship is the names they have for each other.
Dominant and Submissive are the two roles that you and your partner may choose in your relationship. The relationship often has a significant play of power combined with discipline, masochism, and sadism.
So, when you decide on the names you will be using for one another, they are intended to amplify this power dynamic between the two of you. And in this relationship, the dominant person or Dom will be the only one who can call their Submissive by a specific name.
The Submissive names you decide on will be indicative of your relationship dynamic. For example, if you are a caring Dom, you can name your Submissive something sweet like “Princess” or “Baby girl.” And depending on your relationship, the Submissive partner may or may not get a say in what name is being used for them.
