Most ridiculous horse names you've come across....??

At a riding school there was a few: Laptop, Mouse, Dog and a couple of others i can't remember... I wanted to buy Laptop and Mouse i thought that would be ace 'Let me just get my laptop and my mouse...' hee hee! xx
 
Gary and Alan! both hunters. And a friend once had a 'communicator' to her horse, as she walked past one of the other ponies in the barn she stopped and said, ' oh, this one really doesn't like his name, he wants to be called Barry' !!
 
I have a Hairy Mary. Came from Ireland and passported in UK by a very well known cob dealer as Hairy Mary, what were they thinking of !

Then of course, there is my lovely Ted From Tipton.
 
I've known ones called Sue-Ellen, Kevin, Sharon, Ugly Mug. And one called Foal - that one was about 7years old when I knew it, same yard had a dog called Puppy.
 
Snake.

There is a girl who writes for one of the horse mags with a horse call Snake. Makes me shiver everytime I read it.

BBH, this is a long shot and excuse me if you think I am being silly. I know someone who lost a horse called snake, she had fallen on hard times and he was sent to what turned out to be very illeagal dealer, sold from underneath her and both horse and dealer disappeared without money owed or any trace. She is not trying to get him back, just worried about him and wants to know he is ok.

He was a bay ISH of about 15.2hh, I have lost track in my head but I guess he would be about 10-12 years old now.

Many thanks for reading.

Very sad. I believe this horse is an elderly mare.
 
Some of these are brilliant! My YM's beautiful big warmblood is called Jeffrey :) I also once knew a pony club pony called Bucket :)
 
Fifi - started out as filly foal, then FF now 6 and Fifi has stuck

Showjumpers I have come across - Ballbreaker (how did that one get by the registration(gurus? :)), Fanny Farckle, Prozac (.... and next in the ring we have Joe Soap on Prozac!).

Riding school ponies with a theme: Smartie, Polo, Mars, Cocoa, Malty (Malteser), Jelly Baby (was so over at the knee his legs would tremble when standing still, but was extremely sure footed and a brilliant jumper)......
 
We have a Nigel and a Shirley on our yard - Shirley is a boy!

I saw someone on another forum with a ponly called Peni (she wanted to spell it a bit different from Penny to make her stand out) - only problem was when writing her name on buckets - it came out as Peni's. Think about it......... you got it!

There was a guy called shirley on Gimmie Gimmie Gimmie! LMAO

Chuzzlewitt was the funniest one I looked after. Just ended up being called F-witt. He kinda was though...
 
Bud was Budweiser when I brought him. And as a 16.3hh IDx it really didn't suit him...

I had a Nipper as a kid that did used to bite constantly. My favourite though was "Big MC" He was an 18.2hh shire (it was short for mcginty)
