Following on from the names thread..

Hello

I rarely ventured into this section, but noticed the thread on the main board.

Can I please make a plea that horses be named without pillock potential for any future owner, should they use the horse for a discipline you hadn't envisaged.

I'm the doting owner of a "Good Moves" who was bred to jump. He's by Goodboy (by Candyboy). Whilst he does move well, he ain't Totilas and doesn't compete dressage under this name.

Thanks

I used to ride an Arabian racehorse called Energetik and guess what...... he was the laziest thing on four legs!

Whilst I sympathise with your request in principle, in practice, finding original-but-not ridiculous names for new foals each year is REALLY hard.

I know one called "Horizontal Herbert", which might have suited him as a very laid back foal, but now... well needless to say, the registered name is confined to his passport!!!

LMAO!! I used to know a horse called Topless - he was competed by a woman....

There were two names that slipped through the net at Weatherby's lol
Mary Hinge and Joe Blob...need I say more ? LOL

The best one I saw was a Point to Pointer that beat the horse I looked after (he came second and was called 'Boddler') was a mare by Queens Hussar out of Mae West and she was called 'Hussy' lol
