Jacks Dad Report post Posted December 20, 2005 A horses name should come from you. Having someone else pick the name for you takes away the personal side between horse and owner. Watch him for a couple of days. How does he act? Look? Feel? Touch? and even smell? Is he attentive? Or lazy? Is he smmoth in gallop? Or rough like a dirt road? I've known people to name their horses a variety different names from "Pot-hole" to "Cloud-9".... If he's so comfortable to ride, then give him a name that reflects that.... like, "Barcalounger" or "Recliner" Don't let anyone else pick his name for you. This is just my opinion. You got alot of names to choose from now... So I guess you can just pick one from a hat then. JD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shadow13 Report post Posted December 20, 2005 JD- sometimes people like to see what names other people come up with, and see if one of them "fits" the horse. And honestly a show name isn't a personal connection to anything but a horse's showing prowess (or lack of if you're like me...) By the way, I don't think you should change his barn name, particularly if he responds to it. I tend to like names derived from songs-- ie, for show names I've considered All That Jazz and Mr. Cellophane (both songs from Chicago), Yellow Submarine, etc. Just choose something you like.

mehpenn Report post Posted December 20, 2005 When I saw that pic of him the name Orian popped in my head. How about "Orian Super Cruise" or "Orian Star Gazer" Sorry, those kinda suck, but I'm having an "off" day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
