Secret Identities
The women of the Wild West usually went by monikers in order to protect their families and friends just in case something went wrong. Many women went by names like "soiled doves," "ladies of the line," "sporting women," "Doves of the roast," "fallen frails," "nymphs du prairie," and "fallen angels." They were only referred to as the names above and usually never their real names unless they were well-respected.
