Help me name my new horse!
 
OK, so I (well, my sister and I) just got a horse, and she still has no name! We have to think of something good to go on her papers, so does anyone have any suggestions?


*edited to add* Here is a picture, if that helps any!

Never named a horse before. Your link didn't work for me, so I couldn't see her picture. Don't you have to use some part of the name of a horse's dam or sire?

Being silly here, but what about "Dizzy"--kind of a slurring of "D" and "Z" to honor Delta Zeta! If she's a light-color horse, then "Dizzy Blonde," or even "Dizzy Baby" after your screen name! OK, it's late and I'm washing my son's All-Star uniform (his team won tonight and they play tomorrow night!), so I'm the dizzy one!!!

Ooops...well, it worked for me, and I have no idea how to fix it because it's one in the morning and I don't want to put forth the effort necessary to figure it out, so I'll just say that she is a black and white spotted horse about 15 hands high...four legs and a tail...the usual. :)

I've definately seen some strange horse names!!! But then all the horses I've seen are at the race track, and they all have crazy names! (My favorite to this day is "ImNotAPlayer" -- seriously.. who names their horse that? hehehe)

The picture link didn't work, but maybe you could incorporate her name with something about her horse-personality :)

When I had a horse when I was younger, her name was Dixie.

The other horse names in my family were:

Tara
Trixie
Red
Robin


Hopefully these will help give you some ideas!

Rio_Kohitsuji 07-13-2003 11:19 AM

What breed is it? *just wondering*

Hmm...well...for some reason as a nickname I want to call her Sammie... :)

Serious names well...*thinks*...I've gone through the same thing you have w/trying to think up names for the registration papers.

Oh, what are the dam's and sire's name??

GMUBunny 07-13-2003 12:49 PM

Awww, she looks like my sister and mine's first horse, Sailor Max. We've also had horses named Outer Banks and Pockets.

Being from Kentucky, I'd say use a reference to the Wildcats. Cause I love UK basketball. Something with Big Blue, or Cats. Pitino - sounds like Pinto. :)

How tall is she? I assume she is a mare? What kind of riding will you be doing? What breed is she (a paint I assume)?

She's about 15 hands, and she's a spotted saddle horse.

Y'all are coming up with some good stuff here!

Horse Names
 
My 4 are:
Lil's Melody (out of Songman's Girl)
Little Bitty Doctor (Sire: Dearest Doctor by Dr. Fager - and we knew he'd be HUGE...he's about 17 hands and growing! So 'Little Bit' is a joke on him...and it refrences his brain capacity)
Parchio (named after his original owner's favorite Mexican resort)
Pneumo (named by a vet - she won't tell us why she picked it)

If you plan on showing him I've always thought a horse named Apocolypse would be a force to be reckoned with!

Some other great names I've heard:
Jack Daniels
Applejack
Total Warrior (who is a COMPLETE wimp!)
IMA Moon (aka George)

Well there's a few cute ones...I'll post more if I remember any...Be sure to post what you decide on!

ETA: Lateral Bliss? Crazy Legs? Catwalker? Something referencing the lateral gaits might be cute...and it'll be a cute name to explain to those who don't know! (to those who don't: spotted saddle horses - and other gaited horses - move like a cat, with their right legs in sequence, and their left legs in sequence, while 'nongaited' horses move their legs in diagonal pairs)

AchtungBaby80 07-14-2003 11:50 PM

I just found out that the man who owned The Horse before called her Fancy, but it was never put on her registration papers. So we're trying to come up with something with Fancy in it...

By the way, 33girl, I love your suggestions! :p Why don't you get a horse so they don't go to waste?

MSKKG 07-15-2003 12:00 AM

What about:

Catch My Fancy
Fancy Ransom (Fancy Ran Some :D)

I tell y'all, I really don't need to post here late at night! Please forgive me.

LOL If I see Horses R Us at the Monroeville Mall, I will be sure to pick one up. :p The first is Mr 33's idea of naming a pet for an inanimate object...#2 self explanatory....#3 I've been watching A History Of Britain (these videos ROCK, get them sooner than soonest) and #4 is the shampoo my mom used to use.

Fancy Chance

That's all I've got... but if you know the sire and Dam's name, as mentioned before, it might lend itself to more suggestions.
