[Ruby Rider]

i like names that fit the horse

[caitie94]

agreed................

[Manda]

Depends on the horse really. I like long names and short names, it just depends. I've always had issues with names, which is why I turned to the lovely canterculture for Wes's show name (East Meets Wes) but for regular barn names, I love:

Apollo
Sky High
Remy
Toby
Shadow
Eclipse
Mikey (I knew a TB with this name, and I loved him.)
Cricket
Moose
Elliott
Cambridge
Haverhill (don't ask about that one. XD)

As you can see my list is long, and it took me forever to decide when I got my horse (I let my mommy and CC help too :]) but there are just SO many good names.

[Wild Horsefeathers]

I like origional names that make sense. :p

My OTTB's registered name is Preach to Pat. Oh yeah, that makes LOTS of sense... :rolleyes:

Glory...Wonder...do you read the Thoroughbred series?

Also, my mare's name is Skip A Stormy Star...makes sense to me. hehe. I like it.

[theprancingpony]

i knew this girl who had a chestnut TB named Skip Playboy, barn name Scooty. i think that's cute.

and i thought up the name Top Shelf... as in the top shelf where momma hides the cookies... the buffalo sabres fans get that one.

[HorseDayz11]

Glory...Wonder...do you read the Thoroughbred series?

Also, my mare's name is Skip A Stormy Star...makes sense to me. hehe. I like it.

Yes I do. :]. I love it. I am on book 60 something I think. I haven't been reading, I have been busy, but they are so good!

[Raggle]

It's just one name, but I am really fond of the name Shenanigans for the horse who is a bit stubborn and loves to be sneaky. :)

[caitie94]

Shenanigins, ya, i like that name. HAHAHAHAH....i just thought of somehting..heeehee.......if i name a horse that, i would nickname it Nigger.

sorry if no one sees the humor in that. i think it would be halarious.


Skip A Night Star sounds really cool. i think anyways.

[StarGirl]

Yes I do. :]. I love it. I am on book 60 something I think. I haven't been reading, I have been busy, but they are so good!


Lol! When I was in elementary and jr high I used to read those things by the the dozen...my parents spent a fortune at books a million for me! I quit in the early forties, high school took too much of my time...and also I always preferred the Ashleigh, Samantha and Cindy stories to the Christina and Melanie...but thats me. lol. Loved those horse names, though.hehe

[mhoney05]

[zansgoodnews]

I like names in other languages or names that mean something....I also like some of the names of the horses at my riding barn....like:

Briteyed Promise
Shes All Girl Talk
Chiefly Charming
Sandtime Storm
Heavenz Fallen Angel
Heart of Darkness
My Nohea Kolohe
and of course my horse's name : Zans Good News

Show names sometimes make it easier to identify horses and their pedigree, especially if you ride horses that are at the top of their breed (Casper, i think you qualify ;) ) But every horse needs a barn name. I like barney for a gelding or molly for a mare. :p

[HorsayLuv]

Wimpy's Little Step, Willy Be Invited, ect.

[jilllovesgus]

I like the names Just for Laughs, No Regrets, etc. (: If Gus's showname wasn't Just Because, it'd be Just for Laughs. (:

[crazy4horses]

Mine are : Blueberry Wine, Ivory River, My superstar, Twilight, Summer falls, Sundance.

[horse_girlz923]

When I name my horses,
I name them off of their personality, and what they make me think of.
Usually just what comes to mind.
:)
My horse's name is Elvis.
He is a western horse, but is exellent at side-passing and the piaffe (I always spell it p-off)...
:D

[DixieGirl]

[crazy4horses]

Thanks so much! :)

[crazy4horses]

There the cutiest horse's I've eva seen!!

[ashleygoesrawr]

i can't say i'm fond of cliched names and overused names and cutesy common names. i like random names. at the A shows there are so many horses with lame names like strawberry wine, prince charming, overdrawn account, etc.

for quarter horses it's okay to have those funny names, but in the h/j world i personally think humorous, random or somewhat sophisticated names sound the best. some horses at my barn are just humor me, matchmaker, curiosity shop, and my horse is wedding party. yea they're not that original, but my horse already had that name. haha. he is wedding party in the westphalian registry in germany, so wedding party he will be known as throughout the u.s. oh well. not THE wedding party. just wedding party. so random. i know.

but yea. i want to name my next horse No More Cliches. haha.

as for barn names, i like names that fit the horse but are also original. like how many horses in the world are called king? not so original. my old horse's name was silky - how terrible is that? but oh well. i didn't choose it. i don't believe in changing a horse's barn name. my horse's name is tristan only because in germany he didn't have a barn name. and i wasn't going to constantly call him wedding party. i like names from mythology, like tristan, or original names and ones you don't hear everyday. my friend's old horse was named travolta, which was really cute, i thought. another's was called deniro. and there was one called stallone. see a theme? haha. it was cute. i'm not such a fan of actual human names for horses, but sometimes they work if they're on the right horse. i know a horse named eddie and it works. and a horse named john.

but yea. names are fun =D

[caitie94]

Thanks so much! :)
Yor Welcome!!!! :)

though I don't like the Impressive bloodline all that well, I know soooo many people who own them (N/N of course) and I think if ever I was able to name one it would be Impress My Stilettos, or CASPER has a filly named Happy to Impress You, so cute... I absolutely love the Zippo bloodline, they are just so talented (though I hear Zips Chocolate Chip babies have their little quirks along the line of HOT!!!) they are GORGEOUS too... I would name a Zippo baby "Zip to the Top" or "Zip'n Win"... That's just me though, I know I'll never be lucky enough to have a Zippo baby... I also like T'N'T bloodline they are phenomenal show horses too
