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

I learned to ride on a grey welsh pony called Monday. We used to have a pony whose show name was Odd Choice, which was appropriate. Our YO has sold a Darren.
 
Myrrhvyn - Welsh x pony born on Christmas Eve. Independently named Ebenezer, Ebby for short.

When I started riding many moons ago, I rode a pony called doormat lol she was a great jumper and the lady that owned her used to let me take her to pony club:). She was a 13hh new forest pony.
 
not horse but our current dog is called Sasha, nothing mad about that, but we are hopefully getting another this summer and my daughter wants to call it Fierce so she can call 'Sasha Fierce!' when she takes them out:D:D: (you'll need a specific taste in music to understand her, and no I wont be callimg it Fierce!)
 
I must say I do love "human" names for my animals...I have a Merlin, Teddy and a Bonnie at the minute (all names I have chosen as had them from foals :) ) I sold a Hank recently (who I also named) and at home I have a dog called Milo and a cat called Pippa....some of the "human" names on this thread are brilliant :)
 
I always thought the name 'Blowing Wind' was rather amusing (for a racehorse). Wonder how he got that name?! :o:D

I've had horses called Kehshspian, Kehlian, Kinskii and Claudia!
 
The Brendon Stud in Sussex have themes when naming their foals which makes for some amusing names;

8YOs- Cities - Oslo, Seville, Kansas
7YOs - Drugs - Heroin, LSD, Hash
6YOs - Make up - Loreal, Clarins
5YOs - Gardening - Shrub & Hedge
4YOs - Normal names
3YOs - Animals
2YOs - Drinks
1YOs - Cartoons

There was a horse called Tadpole at my old yard, and one called TG, which stood for 'temporarily George' - so called when his owner bought him, aged 8, and couldn't think of a name. Horse is now 35, owned by the same guy and still called TG :D
My ex and I used to have a 17hh black ex chaser whose stable name was Pinky.
 
I've had a 'My Life's Ambition' (Jack) , knew a 50/50 Shire x Arab mare who was a mini shire shaped girl called Dainty, have ridden a Tomato (Rich red chestnut), and a Beansprout and seen a mare at the National stud called Hairbrush!
 
Jeff gets called The Hocamaffe when people ask about him :D A completely made up name due to him being a horse that rides like a camel with the neck of a giraffe - Ho-Cam-Affe! :D

Reminds me: a friend has an ex polo pony mare called Uva. Her mother told a horsey friend the mare's name and the friend thought the mare was called Hoover and that the mother was being 'common' and dropping her aitches!
We often call her Hoover now :D
 
I was given an ex-racer, flat sprinter, in the 80's.

Her name was Skidmark :eek:

Never came with a passport so have no idea who she was or her breeding. She lived up to her name, I used her for pony drifts on the New Forest for a few years. I had no control over her but then, as a teenager I was a brave little thing, not like now :o
