Hello!
I've just bought a Dutch mare from Holland - her name is Handone P. Does anyone know what the P stands for? Quite a few of her siblings have a P after their name too.
Thank you!

It's fashionable on the continent to add the first letter of the owners/breeders surname at the end of the horses name, I imagine to differentiate from other horses with the same name. So if your surname was Brown you would call a horse Valegro B for example.
