A lot prodommes newer to the scene have taken stage names already in use.

Odd that so many people didn't think to Google on a stage name first. On the other hand, the ones who have I wouldn't have noticed.

Aside from creating confusion among active prodommes and clients, recycling stage names makes retired prodommes fade away into invisibility.

There are all these people I used to know from the old Hang, who posted there a lot, and who I had many conversations with.

Several times a year a newer prodomme will post with the stage name of a retired prodomme. I will get excited only to discover it is someone else.

It feels like the retired prodomme gets erased from existence. Partly my fault for never having gotten to know those people aside from The Hang.

On the other hand, I am sure many retired prodommes would find the recycling of stage names to be a GOOD thing. Many want their past careers to fade into invisibility as they have moved on to bigger and better things.

Ha ha, maybe it is something they would want to make happen when they retire. In addition to deleting as much online content as they can they would find a rising prodomme and slip her a few dollars to take her old stage name. When someone Googles on "Baroness Berta" they would find the active prodomme instead of references to the retired one who wants her privacy.
