The actual judges haven't announced their scores yet, we don't know who is where.

The comments so far are very fair. The "Essie" is definitely the best part of my name, but in saying that, I wouldn't have it any other way, as that's the main part. I'll be nicknamed "Essie Slae" when I start winning these challenges anyway, so I'm not worried.

...

Now, as for the other entries... let me rank y'all based on a gold system. If I think your entry is very solid, you're 24 carat. If you impress me, but don't wow me, you're 22 carat, and so on. If you disappoint me, you're gold plated. Don't even get me started on fake gold...

24 carat
Koko Khalyan
Calypso Celeste

22 carat
Chanel DiAngelo
Scarlett LaPierre

Congratulations, I loved all of your entries. These four stood out to me as the most instantly obvious yet creative names that I could actually see working for a real life Drag Queen. Have a sachet of sherbet.

18 carat
Carrie Messiah
Christina McQueen
Carmen Scarlett

14 carat
Wilhelmina Tutu
Udders Tutu
Kaeli Soliloquy

9 carat
Weslina Spice
Lady Royalty
Anna Williams

I liked all of your entries, at least parts of your entries. While I don't think any of these are perfect for drag, there are definitely moments of brilliance. Have half a sachet of sherbet.

Gold-plated
Gina Vitis
Yuri Null
A. Nell

Not a huge fan of any of these. Aside from the fact that they don't sound like drag names to me, the puns are all really gross. I'm not really a fan of puns anyway, but y'all could have done better, I know it. Especially Dancehall and jax. Gina is cute but the meaning behind it is not. Have half a sachet of sherbet. To share.

Unfortunately, that means...

Fake gold
Smarties Skittles
Nellie Boddum

Citrus probably put more effort into designing the banner for ATRL's Drag Race than either of you put into your entries combined. The names do not sound good and the entries do not justify them whatsoever. At least Smarties tried to explain her name, but as for Nellie... you really are at the "Boddum". No sherbet for you. Y'all can have whatever the others leave behind.

BEST: Koko Khalyan (jpow)
WORST: Nellie Boddum (DivaDown)

On the overall ... I thought there would be more humour. I hoped y'all would make some interesting backstories like a real queen would. Where are the iconic characters like Katya, the russian bisexual prostitute? Alaska who crash landed from space?

Even if this wasn't directly inspired by the Spice Girls, I support it!

thank you i love my fans

[getback]

you gave us TWO DAYS to come up with a drag name. most of us are not even serious about doing drag to really put all efforts into it. do you really expect us to come up with something amazing?

No, but I did expect something more than "I chose Skittles because gay rainbows and my sig"

I thought about doing something in charecter, but the challenge didn't call for that. It wasn't introduce yourself and give us your backstory, the challenge was what's your name.

Even the wording of the challenge made it seem like we weren't yet supposed to become these personas, but were supposed to have little essays written as who we normally are on atrl.

I'm the nice judge this time

True, maybe that will be another challenge. That's my advice for the future anyway

Bianca Del Rio. Sharon Needles. Latrice motha****ing Royale. All of these names have one thing in common- they belong to fierce ass queens. In the world of drag, your drag name is your first impression. It introduces you to your audience and can even tell them what kind of queen you are. Is it punny, a parody of a celebrity's name, or does it hold special meaning for you? Your first challenge is to come up with a drag name and explain why you chose it, how it represents you, etc. Be careful what you come up with, because that name might just become your new identity in this competition...

All parts of the challenge ("A Name Fit for a Queen") put emphasis on our drag name and why we chose it. There's nothing in this description that asked for or even encouraged backstories, mythos or further development of the persona at this point.

[DevonDreams]

First.. Katya nor Alaska won. Second I didn't want to put some corny humor or shtick in my name /or backstory. I wanna do drag and the name I chose is the name I've always wanted to use if and when I do drag.
