geez, I really didn't think I needed to spell stuff out as much as this.

Yes but not real advice. You learn pretty quickly that the only real advice you'll get here is "ask someone in real life"

mmm.....nope. I didn't. I said I'm not keen on his name. I also said he has a registered name. The two statements were separate.

Didn't think I'd have to spell it out that I wouldn't be using the name, I never said I didn't like his registered name, and why are you taking it so seriously?? It's an internet forum. Anyone who wants actual advice goes elsewhere - like a friend, or an ri or a vet, the whole thing is just a...

Oh, I'm sorry. I've had some pretty venomous and spiteful responses here in the past, and read lots which were directed at other people, with very little actual support being given, other than to a select few who form the 'inner circle' I thought that's just how we were meant to behave on here...

You have joined in. It's a game of 'all pile on' cleverly disguised as a show name thread. Anyway, who said I was dismissive of it. At no point did I say I was actually going to change it, it's just like when you put your own name into those "porn star name generators" it doesn't mean you...

If you're so dismissive of this "fun challenge" then why did you bother to reply to it?

But it doesn't matter does it? While he's in my care, no commentator is going to say his name, it's never going to be written in any show schedule, it's never going to be scrawled on the back of a red rosette. No one is going to go away and find out he's by xxx out of xxx and his grandaddy was...

He could be the most beautifully bred horse in the world but TBH, I probably wouldn't shout it from the rooftops because it means nothing to me. A horse could be a full brother to Valegro - so what? it doesn't make it Valegro. We have some horses on our yard with fancy bloodlines, whose owners...

No, fun is a bit hazy for me too. Was it that stuff we used to have before weekends were for taking deep litter up?? :rolleyes: Can't remember. She told my RI, I think, but I'd switched off because I they were talking about yard politics. Something I stay well away from! It's not important...

Well, the phrase just for fun implies to me that it's just for fun. Do you remember fun?

Can you see it now?

Ok. Well can I point out that playing about with his name on a forum is different than changing it. Arbitarily or otherwise.

Oh dear, you sound like you got out of bed on the wrong side this morning!

I'm bringing my new loan horse home on Saturday. He's lovely, but I'm not keen on his name. He'll keep his stable name of course, and he has a registered name. But just for fun and because I think it's a challenge, can anyone suggest me a show name for him based on his stable name. He's...
