Seems like everyone likes long essays and such. I wanted to make mine short and easy to understand, and each part makes sense in their own ways  Apparently no one got my way of thinking
And it actually sounded good in my head  too many 's' to pronounce I guess

I don't dislike it as much as the others, but if it was Skittles Smartie like someone else suggested, it would be one of the best IMO.

Ahem, ladies...It seems that one of your competitors has arrived a little tardy to the party. She's in full geish, but it's hard to stun a crowd if they're already long gone. She may be late, but is she too late to be a drag superstar? Discuss, for I haven't yet made up my mind...
Late Entry

WILHELMINA
WHY: As funny as it may sound, when I was a child and we used to call each other by the female version of our names (as most boys in elementary school do, I hope), everyone was stumped as to what to call me. My name is William and the best everyone could come up with was Wilma, which I absolutely hated. I mean, how butch, right?
As I grew older and exposed to more names, I discovered Wilhelmina, which I thought was super chic. A few years later, I took a large interest in fashion and discovered that there was a major modeling agency named Wilhelmina Models. Right then and there, I joked that Wilhelmina would be my drag name.
On another occasion, I drunkenly slipped on my friends tutu and she began to call me that and I corrected her and said it's "Wilhemina Tutu", which is my full drag name to separate me from the rest.
And let's not forget the iconic character from Ugly Betty, Wilhelmina Slater. A true inspiration.
HOW: Wilhelmina to me is an unusual name and it's closeness to my name as well as it's fashion DNA truly represents my drag style. Lastly, if you don't like me or my style of drag, there will be "hel" to pay. |

Skittles is a cute name if combined with something else, but Smarties Skittles doesn't retain a name quality. You could've done like Miss Skittles or Virgin Skittles (those are bad examples but you get what I mean).

She's late and the entry is boring, so I'd say she can go, but I love her, so I'm not sure.

If it's Skittles Smartie, it sounds weird in my head, because I raise my voice in Sm and go down in Sk But I understand what you mean, it makes more sense

I loved your explanation though, especially the description of a "child's heart before it was ever broken".  |

Thanks Citrus, sis, for giving me an opportunity to take part still. I was sick and slept through the deadline.
