WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion Charlotte Flair spoke with Kate Mackz about various topics, including her initial suggestion of Elizabeth Reid as her ring name.
Flair said, “I pitched a few names. I pitched Elizabeth Reid. I loved Miss Elizabeth and then my little brother’s name was Reid. They were like, ‘No, your dad’s from Charlotte. We’re naming you Charlotte.’”
On going with Charlotte over Ashley Flair:
“I could have gone by Ashley Flair. Probably, being Ric’s kid, it was like, ‘We’re gonna give her a stage name, like, not to be Ashley Flair. When I first started, I wasn’t Charlotte Flair. I was just Charlotte. They didn’t attach my last name until, like, four or five years later.”
